    I have a 2019 Dymamax Isata 3 FW motorhome with a water leak that is coming from the bottom of the fresh water tank where the I think the sensor wiring goes into the tank. We had recently returned home from a 4,000 mile trip and I was prepping the coach for a weekend dry camping trip. I was...

    Fresh Water Tank Leak After Accident

    Our 2015 Sunseeker 2860DS was T-boned on the front passenger side the Friday of Memorial Day weekend; the impact dislodged the water line coming out of the fresh water tank, as water had saturated the bedroom carpet, and moved into the outside kitchen area. The wheel, tire, and independent...

    Water Tank Overflow - Losing most of our tank!

    We have a brand new Cherokee Grey Wolf 26BRB. We are losing most of our fresh water once at the campground. We are down to 2/3s or as low a 1/3s on the meter. When filling the tank I look underneath to what I suspect is the overflow pipe. It's right beside the large drain pipe which is similar...

    Filling fresh water tank and syphoning problem

    I have read multiple posts on this subject and have come to the conclusion that due to different circumstances there is no absolute answers. Some people say that if the vent line comes from the top of the fresh water tank it is impossible for syphoning to happen. Any one who has ever used an...

    Fresh Water Tank, but no fill station at campground

    First trip coming up with our Rockwood A122S and were former campers so we are used to roughing it, but what do you do if the campground does not have a fill station. When I picked up my camper I was told not to fill the fresh water tank up at home and travel with it. Is that normal? I...

    Possible to install larger fresh water tank?

    Hi there. My husband and I are looking to purchase a very gently used 2020 XLR Hyperlite 2715. However, as we will be doing a good amount of dry camping with our kids, we really need to make sure that the camper can accommodate a 100 gal fresh water tank. The one we are looking at currently has...

    Fresh water tank filling when hooked to city water

    We have a 2019 2906RS and at a park so I have the city water hooked up but my wife noticed water coming out of the fresh water fill so pulled the cap and it’s full. I only put about 10 gallons in it for a night at a Harvest Host. Any ideas why this would happen. Thanks

    Fresh Water tank material

    I have a hole in my fresh water tank from a screw rubbing into it. I am going to plastic weld it but I don't know if the tanks are made from HDPV or LDPV? I need to use the right welding rod for the patch. Anyone know what mine would be made of? It is a 2018 Sunseeker 2400w

    Water tank location

    I have a 2021 Brookstone 398MBL by coachman. Can anyone tell me if the fresh water tank is located in front or behind the axels? Don’t know if this is an indication of the location but when the tank is full, the overflow vent is in the back behind the axels. Thanks Shannon.

    I have a 2020 Rockwood mini lite 2511s. How does my fresh water tank all of a sudden register 2 out of 4 bars full of water when I have never put water in it? I pulled the lever to drain it and there is no smell or discoloration as if it was coming from the gray or black tank. I have been...

    Add new larger Fresh water tank drain

    My Forester has a small pex hose draining the water and it takes forever. Obviously, adding another outlet to the tank is not an optiion. Has anyone tried putting a "Y" at the base of the filler tube and added a ball valve? I think that hose is 1" and would surely drain the tank in no time...

    25RBHL water tank size, overflow question?

    Fun fact about my fresh water tank. When filling it for the first time to sanitize, I noticed water coming out of the overflow tube as I approached 2/3 full. I filled it until it read full anyways, and it took about 39 gallons to do so. Specs say it should be a 49 gallon system, but I’m...

    Keeping Freshwater Tank Clean

    Ok so I've read the instructions on sanitizing a freshwater tank, used bleach the last 2 years seems to work fine. We dry camped most of last summer due to covid, so I kept filling the tanks with water from my well at home, no chlorination or anything. Should I worry about adding anything...
