    140gal Fresh Water Tank only holding 50gal

    We have a 2021 FQ2413 Stealth Toyhauler. According to our paperwork, and the manuals I found online, this model should have a 140gal fresh water tank. Yet, the sensor will read empty, the pump will act like water is running out...and we can still only pump 50 gallons into the fresh water tank...

    Water tank filling up

    I've had an issue with my Wildwood 27RE in that within 2 days of switching to park water my water tank fills up. In the past it took perhaps 7-10 days. I know there is a type of check valve that prevents this from happening. My question are: Is this valve an internal part of the Shurflow...

    How to fill hot water tank from city feed

    My apologies for a n00b post here. Cell signal isn't good at the campground so it was taking forever to search. I need to know how to fill my hot water tank on city water. I winterized a month ago so I'm sure I left a valve closed, but I don't know which one. Cold water works but hot water tank...

    Burping Fresh Water Tank

    On my first outing with my 232ESP I ran out of water way to soon.:confused: Thought I might have a leak or failed to fully fill the fresh water tank. On my outing last week I ran out again.:confused: I did locate a very slow drip from the tank drain valve. Not enough to dump 20 gallons in 2...

    How do you drain the Fressh water tank on a SS550?

    I just purchased a 2021 SS550 truck camper. The dealer was nice enough to fill up the fresh water tank but I don’t really want to leave it full while in storage and don’t want the extra weight if I don’t need it. Other than running the pump dry, how can I drain the fresh water tank?

    When to stop filling freshwater tank?

    For 2 years, I have filled my 2019 Lephrechaun 260RS freshwater tank by watching the sensor inside the RV and picking a random stop point between 2/3 and Full. While this works, it is never completely full. I do not know what happens if the tank hits full with water still being added from a hose...

I noticed the hole in the tank cover was not lined up with the hole in the tank. So I believe the tank is sliding around. I did manage to...

    Fr3 fresh water tank not draining all the way

    I am new to winterizing this rig. I located the drain line pulled the plugs to both. I can still see water in the bottom of the tank. When touring the lines I do not see how they could completely drain the tank. Will this be ok or is there another drain I’m missing? The water line is just...

    Greetings! We are full time for the past two months, and we have a strange issue. 2019 Coachmen Mirada 35LS, bath and a half.

    Fresh water tank specs

    Please tell me that a typical FW tank has 4 inlets/outlets and not the 3 I have. It seems the previous owner tried to fit a new tank in and gave up in several ways (3 hoses and water pump line precedes a hanging petcock drain to ground). Now I see that the tank is floating a bit more than an...
