Don't forget the lights and other electrical needs.

I faxed an ad to FMCA magazine 45 days ago and two issues later my ad is not in it. I wonder what happen as I am playing by the rules and not giving the same opportunity as others. Thanks for the membership.

3" Sewer Hose Connection Not Lining Up With Hole In Floor
huffypuff replied to jleamont's topic in Water and Holding Tanks
I think that it would be best to get a bigger deck plate installed offset to the current hole and tee and make your own critter guard. -
3" Sewer Hose Connection Not Lining Up With Hole In Floor
huffypuff replied to jleamont's topic in Water and Holding Tanks
Joe on my HR it don't appear to line up until you swivel it up or down. I take the cap off then push the big tee connector down to line up with the hole, hose goes right through. When I disconnect I pull up on the big tee connector and screw in the floor cap. -
I'm glad I don't have one of them new fangle dangle newer diesel with all the EPA stuff on it. My coach don't even have a EGR on it. Love it!

This is how your coach should be leak tested. See link below.

There you are Rich. I haven't seen you online in a while. I hope you are doing well.

Yes I'm retired with a couple of pension but no SS yet. I hold off that until I'm 67 if it's still there. I open my own shop going on six years fixing cars and light trucks only. Since I live on a island I don't stay too busy.

Yes I'm retired from a county fleet doing everything from earthmovers to weed wackers. Then tractors, lowboys, police and ambulance. Then we have all the special executive cars and lower employees cars and light trucks. Yes I was a jack of all trades and no master so I read instruction. There was many around me that wouldn't bother. I don't know what happen to your unit but mine appears to be working as just fumes from a wash can trip it.

If the red light was flashing it means the power should of been off if hooked up correctly.

Oh nooo the insulation is cut open and sensor is hose clamped directly to the heater elements. Then the insulation is tie wrapped closed. If someone installed the Norcold recall on your coach like that he needs to be fired. I stand by my comment that the Norcold is better as it detect the problem at the source and requires inspection before resetting it. Auto reset can cause a fire as the problem could be present.

WD40 = Water Displacement 40 trys.

I talked to that guy at a rally from Absorption Refrigeration Protection Control. He claims the 2 heating elements overheat and cracks the metal which causes the leak. He had a sample he showed me. Norcold put a box with a temperature probe on the heating elements to trip if the elements overheat. His design puts the temperature probe above the heating elements which my opinion is too late to prevent the crack. Norcold has to be reset with a magnet as they want customers to have the unit inspected if it overheats. His design reset automatically regardless of the reason of the trip. The bottom line is, if you decide to get this different mouse trap installed, please do not disconnect the Norcold protection unit.

$32 Mistake Putting Seals In Sealand Toilet
huffypuff replied to lylefikse's topic in Water and Holding Tanks
Mwilson, It sounds like water valve if clean water. If not clean water it may be the base gasket or worst if brand new motorhome. Well anyway it must be fixed soon or you will face replacing the floor. Seals and water valve should be available at any good RV or boat place. -
I had the portable in the RV and the larger one at home. I won't grill on anything else. I try to use the 20 amp or 30 amp outlet on the campground outlet instead of the coach.

Walmart is $12.97 a gallon - $5.00 is $7.97. Free shipping for 6 gallons since it will be over $50.00. I wonder if you have to get a separate receipts for each gallons or only get a rebate for one gallon per household? Almost sounds too good to be true to me. http://www.walmart.com/ip/14958327?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222227009452554&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=40839554912&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=52987236446&veh=sem

I'm a diabetic also and was using artificial sweetener. Now I find out that is bad for you and trying a more natural approach. Can't win for losing.

I see a lot are using electric so the question isn't it more expensive to use the electric heat as instead of propane or diesel. One example I can give is I found that since I had to pay for electric per month, it was cheaper to run the fridge on propane instead of electric. Cut my electric bill more than half doing that.
-
No Aqua Hot in my coach and the only ceramic we bring along is the built in one in the basement. The noise from the heat pump don't bother me but it does my wife. For that reason I'm not allow to run it and the same is true for the A/C unless it's a scorcher outside.
-
Today I did the monthly exercise of the generator. Instead of loading the generator with the microwave, heater and A/Cs I ran both heat pumps instead. They worked pretty good with the temperature outside of 45 F. Now comes the question, how many here run their heat pump instead of the heater? I seem to me if you are not paying for the electric at the campground why not save on propane? Most campgrounds include the electric unless you are staying more than a week.
-
Haha I hope they get it there in one piece if you get the same truck driver. As for things rolling my barrel chair stay put as well as the desk chair and folding chair. The desk chair and folding chair I put the back to back so they don't tip over. All three are sitting on carpet so that helps hold the feet. On laminate flooring you will have to bolt it down.

That would be a very good thing to do is to meet up with the flex armor booth. They may look at your coach right there.
-
The lauan plywood would be replaced in the damaged area before spraying. I talked to these guys at the FMCA rallies and they specialize in roofs. Don't get rv amor mixed up with rv flex armor as one is roll on that is done in your driveway. RV Flex-Armor is applied in a shop. I would have my roof done by them if I was keeping the coach.
