    Just A Bit Disappointed!

    Elizabeth and I were up in Bellingham WA last winter. Worst winter they have had in years. Temps were down to 10 deg and stayed there for a couple of weeks. I used the Home Depot heat tape and wrapped it with the foam pipe insulation. Never had an issue. The ice and snow drifts were so bad that...

    Bumps under wallpaper

    We have been living in the BH full time for the last two years. We have been in S. Texas since Jan. I had a second AC installed in June and they have run, practically, 24/7 since then. So the humidity has been low, in the trailer. We had a small leak on the rear of the main slide, in the spring...

    Bumps under wallpaper

    Asking again. Well, let me try this one more time. I am still having issues with the bumbs behind the wall paper and it is spreading to other areas of the coach. It is not the paper bubbling, there are bumps rising up out of the wall board behind the paper. Have there been any other issues...

    Heated water hose

    I just went to Lowe's and picked up some heat tracing tape and pipe insulation. Probably $40 total cost. Spent the winter in Billings Mont, then moved over to Washington state. Sub freezing temps the whole time and never a problem. The heat tape plugs in to the UDC. Has a termostat that kicks in...

    Heartland Owners Club - Flag (3'x5')

    Jim: Put me on the list for one of the flags. It would look great flying next to my Eagle, Globe and Anchor flag.

Looks like the Kodiak/Top Kick is what I will be going with. Wanted an International RXT, but they quit making them about a year ago. Maybe I can...

    Some questions

    Ray answered 1-4. As for #5, We don't strap ours down, have never had them move or suffered any damage by not strapping them down. We even carry a scooter inside the coach and don't strap it down, have never had it move on any trip. The last trip we took was from Birch Bay, WA ( 18 mi. S of the...

    3055RL Electrical trouble

    I'd say that junction box under the slide would be your best bet.

    leak when flushing black tank

    Mine was installed backwards and never allowed water to pass through. Luckily I didn't have a leak. The dealer was new to Heartland and didn't know why the hose was going up in the wall between the bath and kitchen, so he just cut the lines and spliced them. Never had a problem since. I leave a...

    What brand do you recommend???

    My sentiments exactly HT and Ray. I love my Duramax/Allison. I would go with a 2008 or earlier if I were to upgrade to a newer truck. I have the earlier version Duramax with a 310hp engine. The LMM engines produce 360hp. Plenty of HP and Torgue for pulling these trailers. I have the Edge set on...
