    Hot Water Tank on Permanent Bypass - what should I use as a drain plug?

    Hi everyone. I have decided to permanently bypass my hot water tank. I have it empty and dry. I have the water bypassed and the anode rod removed. I was going to use a plastic plug in the anode rod / drain hole but then though, why don't I just loosely thread the anode rod back in a couple...

    Underbody Waterproofing Repair

    Hi all. A few months ago, when we blew the china bomb, the tire removed some of the waterproofing tarp-like material that covers the wood subfloor right above the wheels. I did a quick fix with duct tape, but was looking for a more permanent solution. Can anyone recommend a good product? I...

    Hello everyone, Just picked up a 2014 Coachmen Apex 249RBS. All systems appear to be ok with one exception: weak water flow in the kitchen sink, no issues in the bathroom sink, shower or toilet. I removed and cleaned the screen although it was pretty clean. Before I start taking stuff apart is...

    2023 25FKBS Water Filter Location?

    It's getting close to that time where I like to de-winterize my 2023 25fkbs. As you may remember, we purchased our TT new last December. I've been studying the manual and going to 'Youtube' college. In the manual, it states my trailer may have a water filter. I assumed... it would be a canister...

    Hot water bypass

    We are de-winterizing our 2023 ROO 19, and are running into trouble with the hot water bypass. We've drained the antifreeze from the low point drains, filled out water tank with fresh water and bleach (we couldn't use the city water connection so used the regular spot for fresh water filling)...

    Water damage repair

    I had posted some questions in other areas because I unknowingly bought a 2012 wolf pup with a lot of water damage. With some help from a retired rv repair tech we began tearing in and rebuilding. As best we can figure the water made its way in through one of the water inlets. The seals up...

    Hot Water Tank

    I just de-winterized my 2017 Silverback for the season and when I filled the hot water tank and flipped the switch, the igniter came on and lit up, but when the igniter turned off it blew out the flame. This is something that hasn’t happened previously. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Where is fresh water drain valve located on a Forester 2251?

    I recently purchased a Forester 2251LE, and would like to be able to drain the fresh-water tank before my first long trip next month. The problem is that there is no Owner's Manual other than the "interactive, online manual," which is not much better than useless. The only help that manual...

    odd water leak outside

    I own a 2018 Grey Wolf Toy Hauler 22rr. On the last trip of the season last fall I filled the water tank full as the area we were going camping did not have hookups. Everything worked fine, but the last day of the trip I began getting water dripping out under the trailer. It did not leak...

    Why does my fresh water fill have a check valve?

    I have a 2018 new to me XLR Nitro toy hauler, the fresh water tank fill has a check valve in it. When you fill (and it doesn't matter how slow) the floor will start to bulge and you have to stop and stick something in that check valve to release the air to continue to fill. So basically you can...

    Water line below the trailer

    This past weekend when we woke up to snow on the ground, I found we had no water in the trailer. Through some troubleshooting I found the water line from the tank to the pump was frozen. I found the line drops below the plastic sheeting below the trailer, and ties into the tee in the picture...

    Fresh Water Tank Fill

    We are in the process of purchasing a '21 Salem Hemisphere 27RL. The fresh water tank has a hose fill similar to the city water connection. Our last camper just had a cap with an open fill. Is there an overflow somewhere to let you know when it is full?
