    Filling the propane tank

    I read somewhere that store clerks were over-filling propane tanks instead of filling them to the prescribed 80%. My question is on a 2021 Forest River Forester is there any over-fill protection built in to the rig? Do I need to tell the clerk to only fill it to 80% or do they just know? I'm...

    propane tank replacement

    I have a 2016 3010DS needing a propane tank replacement. Somehow rust got underneath the enamel paint and peeled it all off. Now the tank is badly rusted and pitted. It may be welded in place, idk. My question is has anybody had to get one of these replaced. Can you get the tank with brackets...

    PLEASE read the thread titled "Check your propane tank mounting bracket welding!"

    PLEASE read the thread titled "Check your propane tank mounting bracket welding!" I posted it on the General Motorhome forum because this problem may not affect just Georgetowns but the two reported failures were both Georgetowns...

    Check your propane tank mounting bracket welding!

    While both of these failures occurred on Forest River Georgetown Class A's, reportedly a 2020 and a 2022, that does not mean that only the Georgetown is potentially affected. The owners were flagged down by passing motorists pointing and the owners found the propane tank hanging down and...

    ISATA 5 - CO/Propane Detector not working

    yesterday I woke up to a humming sound from the propane detector in my brandnew Isata 5. I unhooked the hot wire to stop the buzzing until I could trouble shoot. The detector was flashing red which indicates it is past its useful life (hard to believe since the unit is brand new.) This...

    Hey folks, I am in a pinch. We are setup camping and discovered that we have no propane at the water heater or stove. I took it to get filled and the tank is full.

    04 Tsunami 3904QS propane hose

    Looking for answers concerning 2004 FR Tsunami 3904QS. I’ll start with the propane tanks. Two horizontal tanks I believe are 20 lb each. I have a broken hose between the two tanks that was connecting the lower side of each tank. What was that hose for? Refrigerator and stove work fine.

    convert fifth wheel propane to autoswitchover

    I've got 2 propane tanks on opposite sides of my trailer. Each has a regulator and eventually they cross connect under the trailer. I see no check valves so when changing out tanks, I shut off the full one when I remove the other to fill it. Has anyone converted the system to either install...

    Conversion from single propane to dual propane

    What would be a reasonable cost to have a RV dealership convert my Nobo 19.6 from single propane to dual propane. I got an estimate from a dealer for $625 and I thought that was pretty expensive. Thanks!

    Gas Water Heater On = Propane Smell Inside RV

    Water heater model: Suburban SW6DE Obviously, in electric only mode, there's no gas smell. When the gas switch is turned on, water heats up faster (as expected) but there's a smell of gas / propane inside the RV and it seems to be coming from the furnace ducting... It's quite strong and...

    Propane tank/tankless water heater combo

    I own a 2020 Columbus 5th wheel with my first on demand tankless water heater. Typically, the system must sense significant water flow to turn on. Once on, you have unlimited hot water until you stop the flow by shutting off the hot water. But due to the design, you always end up with a large...

    Co/Propane alarm wiring help

    I'm replacing a Safe-T-Alert detector using wire nuts instead of the compression type connector, because I know how to do wire nuts but not the latter. Both the trailer wire and alert wire are strands, not solid. The alarm says to connect its aluminum wires (no awg given) to #14 to #18 awg...

    Troubleshooting propane

    Hi all! I have a 2022 16BHS. The furnace fan kicks on, and you can tell the pilot light is trying to light by making a clicking sound. It never lights, therefore it never heats up. The water heater also does the same thing. The water does not get hot. You can hear the pilot light trying to turn...
