    Recaulked RV Roof

    Hello all! This is my 2nd major change I’ve done to my RV. My current caulking was cracking on the roof when I picked up my RV. I cleaned the old caulk the best I could but some dirt remained, I even tried tilex on it. I got it about 50-60% clean. I then recovered the old caulk around the...

    Design for Water Supply System

    Okay, this a long meandering post. Picture we're sitting around the campfire having a few cold ones and just kicking around an idea. No right or wrong ideas, more of a "how would you do it"? In a previous thread -...

    Frozen water filter and cold weather Salem FSX 161QK

    I'm new to RV'ing and I recently found water wasn't working. I found that the cold weather appears to have busted my water filter. I realize in some other RV's the filter and other water connections are enclosed and thus they get some heat from inside, and another good practice is to keep cold...

    Water pump noise reduction?

    Anyone found a way to reduce water pump noise? The pump in my Europa 31 is under the bed. When one person uses the toilet or sink at night time, the pump noise wakes the other person. Brian C recently made a FB post about an alternative pump being tested (Seaflo 12v 56a variable speed pump)...

    Water line drain location

    Bought a used 2016 Surveyor 321BHTS. No manual. I've been told I need to drain the water lines as leaving for 5 nights with temps in the teens. I know there's 2 lines behind the steps outside the bathroom in the back. I believe they are red and blue. Are those the only ones? Didn't even think of...

    Atwood OD-5001 water heater

    The water heater on our Dynamax Isata 5 has a leak at the Water Heater Modulating Valve Assembly. The plastic has a crack where one of the waterlines go in. Has anyone attempted to replace this part? Or if I replace the entire water heater, which tankless do I go with since they do not make...

    Water Heater Insulation

    I just bought a 2021 Geo Pro 16BH and the foam insulation on the water heater looks strange like maybe it melted at some point. Any insight you can offer? https://1drv.ms/i/s!AvStLR7eqJbD8d0F7q8Rj0MhHHTp4A?e=xhjdgH

    Debris in water system

    Hi everyone, Took the 2010 Georgetown 330TS out again and having another (continuing) problem with my water system. After cleaning out all my faucet, toilet and shower screens and getting lots of dried red residue (probably old dried RV antifreeze) out of each of them, I had good water pressure...

    Hot Water Heater Bypass

    Good Day All: we have a 2024 Primetime Avenger two wheeler, and I am trying to winterize it using the anti-freeze method. I cannot find the hot water heater bypass valve to close it to keep the anti-freeze from going to the water heater. I can trace the red hot water line from the heater to the...

    Isata 3 Outdoor Shower Water Pump Switch

    I was planning to install a wireless switch in the bathroom to turn the water pump on and off on my '24 Isata 4 24FWSFX Freedom Edition. I was going to tap into the Water Pump Switch at the outdoor shower with the wireless switch under the bed. I assumed that switch was a simple On / Off switch...

    Rv water pump

    I have an East to West Tandara 5th wheel and was starting to winterize it. When I hit the water pump to suck the antifreeze the water pump did not come on. Other than having sufficient power, does anyone know anything else that might wrong.

    Water pump

    I do a lot of boondocking and often have to add water to my 60 gal fresh water tank - manually. The full access portal is pretty high up and does not have a connector or pour slot - just set up for hose to go in and lodge there without connecting. Currently use 5 gal jugs and have to hold on...

    Water pressure problem

    Hi All, I fixed my TV and my microwave problems that I had, but I can't figure out why I have hardly any water pressure. It was great until our shakedown trip then all of a sudden I don't even have enough pressure to see any water in the toilet when flushed. I have a little out of the faucets...

    Isata 3 Shower Hot Water

    I saw another thread on this issue but it seems my unit is slightly different. I have a single handle shower. I was able to remove the handle by turning the sleeve, but how do I remove the extension that the handle screws on to?

    Does anyone know where I can get this exact FR1 housing wrench for my WaterPur housing? I can’t get it off and it’s sold out on WaterPur’s site and nothing on Amazon looks comparable. Or how to get the thing off? Newbie here, sorry if this is common knowledge. Cheers!

    Didn't drain water pipes before flushing with antifreeze

    Hi, I am interested in thoughts.... In my haste to winterize my travel trailer I flushed all faucets and drains with antifreeze. However, I realized after the fact that I failed to drain all of the water first using the low point valves. The trailer is in Washington State until May, I'm in...
