    2005 Roo 19 missing fresh water tank

    I just picked up a 2005 19’ Roo that was a bit of a fixer upper. It is missing some random parts and pieces and one of which is the fresh water tank and pump. If anyone has pictures of their setup, that would be greatly appreciated so I can restore the original setup or if anyone has come up...

    How to drain fresh water tank

    I have a 2010 Forest River Lexington. The fresh water tank is located under the bed at the rear of the RV. There appears to be no drain to remove the water except by running the water pump through the taps. This is slow and extra wear and tear on the pump. Quite impractical. Anyone else have...

    New 31V - Water Tank Vent

    Hello, My wife and I just bought a 2019 Vengeance Rogue 31V. I was looking it over yesterday and noticed a water line coming out of the belly, on the left side of the trailer, in the area of the potable water tank. The line is capped. The water system drains lines are on the right side...

    2005 Sunseeker Water Tank pump setup

    Hi! I'm trying to clean my water tank on my new to me 2005 Sunseeker. I managed to finally figure out how to fill the tank, thanks to a thread here from 2013. 10 Years later and here I am confused. Once I found a plug for the bottom low point drain I was able to get the tank to take on water. I...

    Waste Water Tank Level Indication Issues

    We are the proud owners of a 2017 Dynamax 5-Series Isata 36DS. We have two issues. First, neither the black or gray tank will indicate a level above one third full. I think that fixing this issue is well within my skill level but I am unable to get to the sensors on the tanks - which leads to...

    Water tank level between outings

    Wondering what the collective thinking is about the water tank storage level between outings (not talking about winterizing). Do you park/store it empty (drain it) or fill it full or at leave whatever % if it will be just a week or two or three between trips, then fill before next trip...

    Why would I not want to over fill my freshwater tank??

    I was watching some random RV videos and one guy recommended getting a flow meter to show how full your freshwater tank was when filling it, so it didn’t overflow? But he didn’t say why. I’ve always just filled my tank until it overflowed. Why would I not do that? My last tank was 60 gallons...

    Replacing Freshwater Tank in My 2020 Microlite 21DS

    Got my new replacement water tank in! The reason I'm replacing is that the existing tank flexes and bows (as seen in the photo) significantly when filled with water. I almost exclusively boondock with my travel trailer. When I say boondock I mean off grid, isolated camping away from people. As...

    Fresh water tank mod

    I didn't like how Forest River didn't bother to run a vent hose up to the outside vent on our 2023 Wolf Pup 14CC. They just left the elbow on the fresh water tank vent pointing down. Last time out last season (second trip in our new camper) we found out that not only did it overflow from...

    Fresh Water Tank Damage

    On a recent camping trip, I ran over a chunk of truck tire rubber. It hit the drain on my fresh water tank and broke it loose- just barely hanging on. Can this be repaired or do I have to replace the tank? 2020 Wolf Pup16FQ. 23 gallon tank, I believe. Also, I found a chunk of the rubber lodged...

    Water tank sensor

    Can a water tank sensor go bad? I leveled my rv then filled my water tank at the house and once it came out the overflow drain I closed the valve and stopped filling. My sensor reads 2/3 full but if it is coming out the overflow I assume it's full. Is that a fair assumption? Also when I...

    Fresh Water Tank and De-Winterization

    Hi everyone, my wife and I got a used Coachman Catalina Legacy last fall. We winterized it without a problem. We keep the unit at a permanent site all year round with full hookups so we don't use the freshwater tank. My question is, this spring when I de-winterize, do I need to do anything...

    I am comfortable with the towability aspects of traveling with a full tank of fresh water (weight distribution, tongue weight, truck GVWR, etc). What I am curious about is the ability of the tank support structure to handle 450 lbs of water over the occasional pothole or bridge expansion joint...
