Ian. Sounds like a good plan! Leave your parka at home!!! What happened to Galveston, TX., we to cold for you? Joe. Sounds like the Tail (boat), wagging the dog (Coach)! Been there, 51' boat trailer, being pulled by a 1 Ton, 4 x 4, Bronco! Don't work well at 90+ mph. Got rid of it for a goose neck trailer & 1 Ton Dodge, 4 x 4, Crew Cab, with Banks System! Never had a problem again, following the State Cops! 😁

They want a arm/leg and first born! That's steep labor cost.

DJ. Go on web and look up Absorption Refrigerator...it will give you the history all the way back to 1878 to present time. Dometic from 1907, Electrolux. Various types of Vapor, gas, liquids, etc. Including the history of when Dometic, at the time part of Electrolux, came out with AR for the trailer and then MH industries. A rolling, bouncing, twisting earthquake going down the road and the AF still is functional.

The problem with Texas, it's not written in stone! Yes, it's on the books, but it has not gone thru the voting to become Law yet, still a gray area. You can go to one DMV and they have and give the test, go to another DMV and they have no clue! I drove to the State Police and asked them, where can I take the test and where do I go for the driving part...painless! I got a note with the add. of places within 50 miles of Galveston for both.

Your paying for your insurance, so it isn't FREE. I get your drift, got the same with State Farm & like you, do not have RA anymore!

Now, that's a thought...🤣

Keon, Welcome Back!

Did you explain to them that your there for the Class B recreation vehicle, over 26,000 pound, 15 question test? What town did you take it twice?

Bill, the point, is that, it's very expensive...Galveston Island has never "Trucked Sand" in! The dredging of the ship channel is done by Houston, TC and Galveston contractors, for the Corps of Engineers, they charge $$$ to disperse it on the Island. Last time the Islanders paid for it, was in Winter of 2007. $15 million...who knows where Hurricane IKE put it, September 13, 2008? The private beach, that is on the Moody Gardens Property, is white and was delivered from Destine, FL. The cheapest (FREE) beach replenishment we have is by "Mother Nature", she moves sand from the North East to the South West, by tidal action, storms, and current and it all comes ashore in the San Louise Pass part of Galveston!

You have a source of heat, salt water and Ammonia. The problem is, it will only work in an environment above "0" F. Your "gel" is actually, slush water, they use salt water, because it has a much lower freeze point, than fresh! In a Dometic Fridge, built in the late 90's, level is 6 degrees front to back and 3 side to side, not critical anymore, as it was in the 60's, 70's, 80's and early-mid 90's! Unless your living in your RV, I would do as Kay suggested...turn the unit off and wait until early spring or until your out of Parka weather, if your going South!

That's kind of what I figured and who would want to re circulate gray water...ugh! Since I have Aqua Hot & it works both ways, I guess I need insta hot installed if I want to conserve water, using both means of obtaining water! Does that make sense?

There is that thought, how long have the 4 little holes been there & under what kind of weather condition? That leads to the question of what does the roof underneath look like? dry root, wet, mold etc. come to mind...don't close the barn after the horse!

Since I'm not an electric genius...does it also work when hooked up to a faucet? Other than the gray tank, you have no loop...to early to think!

On that project it cost the Tax payer, nothing! The Corps of Engineer built the Sea Wall in 1903 & still maintain it. Normally it is the City Parks Board that maintain the Beach on our dime, but the last time off build up, was paid for by Tillman Feretitta , because he owns everything on the Seawall including the Amusement Pier! He's the main driving force, behind getting gambling back to Texas! He was Born on Island and among other Enterprises, owns Golden Nugget Casino's! Our Dime pays to maintain his beach...so it really cost him nothing, call it Tax write off money!

TTRV. As Joe wrote, if the 99 ECM is not trash also, it should work!

Your coach is a 2002, but I think you have a 2001 chassis. CAT built the 3126 from 1997 to 2001, in 2002 CAT came out with a modified 3126B..

Joe. Where you see the cut, that's the Gulf of Mexico. To the left is a retention pond that is very low salinity and when it rains it drains into it & there is no movement so it stagnates and is a big breeding ground. Bill. West Bay is opposite, across Steward Road and neast/swest. The Island is shaped like a Boomerang! My house is on pier and beams on a built up 3/4 ac lot, so I'm 23 feet above mean high tide...second highest on Island. My garage is 1,110 sq. ft., and living quarters is 2,660...it hangs over garage on 3 sides.

Bill, YES !

Lot's of nice ideas...job well done so far!

We call the 2 ponds, mosquito heaven! The road between is FM 3004, behind park is Stewart, east side is 7 1/2 mile road, west is 8 mile rd. My house is 1 mile west of park!

Now it makes sense! We're just poor " Country Trash", got a couple of HP printers...mine cost $89 at Wall Mart.

Prior to $1,200+, do the simple stuff first. Radiator cap as Rick said.

Ray, relax, it probably is. My wire harness for the awnings start at the step, goes up a channel by the door to ceiling then split. Each bundle has a inline fuse, one set goes to the main awning switch in the control panel for battery info. then I have a master control with 5 switches..one for each awning...then another switch in bedroom! The other bundle runs in a channel under ceiling to the 2 other awnings, each has it's own switch! The master control is for my remote! Oh, they stopped production on my motors in 2006 and ??? no replacements are offered. When my motor died in Mexico, in 2014...my choice was to replace the door awning or remove and live without. $1,200+ Labor, no thanks, I don't go out in heavy rain! Every day, I knock on wood, my other awnings are operational.
