    Fresh water tank

    WHY does my fresh water tank occasionally fill to overflowing when I’m hooked up to city water??? I recently had the check valve in the water pump replaced hoping that would fix the issue but I discovered that it’s occurred again tonight.... Doesn’t do it all the time - just occasionally....

    Hi All, Have a new 2021 Wildwood Heritage Glen Hyprt-Lyte 26BHHL. First time out last month, filled the fresh water until it was leaking from fill port, arrived at camp with probably 5 gallons, wasn't sure what happened. Took it out last week, filled fresh water until panel light indicated...

    Fresh water tank bypass in 2015 Leprechaun QB220

    The instructions that I found online for the Fresh Water Tank Bypass: The water tank bypass is under the bed. Unscrew the black port next to the converter to access. When I open the black port next to the converter I don't see any bypass valve. There is a lot of wires and tubing. It's very...

    Filling the water tank without a city connection

    I have a 2020 Coachman Leprechaun 260QB and was curious is any other owners of this model know a way to fill the water tank without a city water connection.

    Fresh water tank not falling out!

    After much hand wringing reading posts about water tanks coming loose and falling out on the highway, I am happy to report the Geo Pro (Rockwood) I've been using for past 2 years does not seem to have that issue. I always travel with at least 1/3 tank of water, and last trip they shut off all...

    Fresh water tank material/manufacturer?

    Does anyone know what the kind of plastic our fresh water tanks are made of or who makes them and a part number? I had the bright idea to put an access port in mine to clean out, add bleach and or Anti-freeze but now can't get it to stop leaking. Even 3M 5200 didn't work, which is a first for...

    2020 Leprechaun 260DS Hot water tank access

    I spoke with the dealer and they told me that I would need to undo the screws for the cover inside the coach to access the hot water tank (for winterizing, the switch for the bypass on the tank). I found that another way of doing it, (easier for me, and less chance of messing up the screws), was...

    Camco Hot Water Tank Plug Failure

    So my CAMCO brand plug failed out of the blue about 9 months after changing it. I saw water dripping out of the metal outside door of my hot water heater, opened it, and 2-3 tiny holes in the top of the plug were spraying water out 3-4 feet. (We were on city water with normal pressure.) Would...

    Fresh water tank drain

    Is there a drain to empty the fresh water tank other than the low point drain on a 35thss? I've looked under the trailer and don't see one but I feel like there has got to be one because the low water point drain is only one white drain (not one for cold and hot) and drains extremely slowly.

Checking tank levels the next morning, I was surprised to see that...
