Unfortunately, your problem (real or potential) is going to extend. Once the new well is installed and running, their potable water system is also likely contaminated and suspect. It will have to be sanitized, flushed, and tested extensively before it will be permitted by the Health Department...

Not mentioned so far is moisture control. I'd recommend a portable dehumidifier. The more you seal things up, the more moisture you will have from cooking, showering, and just breathing inside. There will be plenty of cold surfaces that will condense this moisture on including walls, window...

www.bobistheoilguy.com The Oil 101 article is great.

Low air flow causing overheating. Make sure all vents are fully open, unobstructed, and try again.

Gerry, First, re-wiring your outlets to the screw terminals rather than the stab-in connectors is great move. The spring loaded stab-in connectors frequently do not mak solid connections. This will cause overheating of the outlet and wire, particularly where you have high loads. I've replaced a...

Hi Gerry, Did one of your branch circuit breakers in your Main Electric panel trip? I am assuming not, only the GFCI in the bathroom outlet. If my assumption is correct, you would still have 120 volts on the wires on the back of the GFCI outlet. A GFCI is always the first outlet on the...

You can change to the battery operated Hunter Stat, but it does require you replace the Dometic "Digital" relay box to an "Analog" relay box. You can probably find it on E-Bay fairly cheap. You'll also have to replace the pre-made flat cable to the Thermostat with suitable wire, like 6C #18. A...

drsasser, What became of our experiment? Hopefully, you've made some headway with your AC problem.

It would. The heat load is higher during the day, so the A/C discharge air is warmer and mixes with warmer air in the room before reaching the thermostat. I can easily produce the same effect in our bedroom by adjusting the ceiling vent toward the thermostat, and the difference in the heat of...

I assume your looking for the black water tank gate valve? It will be located on the off-door side, at the bottom of the tank. You might be able to get to it by removing the basement utility wall, but may need to remove a section of the belly.

I think you have air blowing on your thermostat. Try directing your vents near the thermostat to blow the conditioned air away from it.

You probably need to clean your drain pan and weep holes in the A/C unit.

Mine has a switch for fan off-low-med-high. Have you verified that that fan is supposed to be running.

Not sure I understand, but here's a thought: Air is compressable, water is not. Hypothetical: If you have air in the pressurized side of the system, the pump will continue to run to keep pushing water into the system until the air is sufficiently compressed and the water pressure eventually...

Re: AC Low Air Flow You should have a look at the Heating/Cooling guide under Tools/Heartland Owners Manuals. There is no foam block, such as you describe that I am aware of. My first hunch is that there is a thin foam barrier that separates the A/C supply and return plenums. It is held in...

I would recommend that your dealer check the gas pressure from your regulator. This takes some specialty instruments and know-how to perform. It sounds like your gas pressure is set too high causing an overly rich fuel air mixture. If that is the case, your stove, oven, and furnace are also...

Re: a/c/ leaking into trailer Have you pulled your exterior shroud off the A/C and cleaned out the drain pan and weep holes? They do fill up with some nasty crud.

Josh, Unfortunately it's not unusual. It is, however, very hard on the A/C. You really want the unit to run for several minutes and be off for several minutes, at a minimum. It is caused by the discharge air from the A/C blowing on the thermostat tricking it into thinking that the room has...

Dpetri, I am a fan of Heartland products, but I'm not a Heartland "Fanboy" who thinks that the factory does no wrong. They all do. Your dealer should have reviewed your factory order sheet with you when it was entered. When it was mis-ordered, it should have been put into their stock and the...

Have you adjusted the pilot flame size? Maybe it just needs turned up a little. If you light the pilot, remove the oven knob, there is an adjustment screw accessible through the slot on the front of the range. It takes a small straight-slot screw driver.

Re: AC compressor runs continuosly I'm guessing the compressor start relay contacts are welded closed. A good rap with the handle of a screwdriver might free them, but you should replace the relay if that is indeed the cause.

I'd check the fuel tank venting. Sounds like it's starved for fuel.

All good posts, but also reminds me that there has been a couple threads a while back, about the wirenuts burning up in the junction box on the side of the water heater.

I used one of these for several years in Florida. http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/Portable-Water-Softener-Conditioner/6848/&?&affiliateid=3274&cvsfa=2734&cvsfe=2&cvsfhu=36383438&gclid=CPSlmeTbh7wCFQto7AodehQAKA It's pricey, but uses rock salt which is cheaper to use than some other...

Also to add to Dan's comments, while you have the A/C cover off on the roof, you will be able to see the Condenser Fan blades - make sure it turns freely by hand. Both the condenser fan (outdoor) and the evaporator fan (indoor) are powered by the same motor. If it does, you can have someone turn...

I'm not entirely sure, Ray. I, like many, had several re-occurring and difficult to find and fix water leaks earlier on. I don't think that was the primary source of the problem however. The basement floor started sagging within a few months of ownership. (It was a great way to know if we had...

It is, and it is not as durable as the OEM diamond-plate rubber that came from the factory. I'm not sure the bedliner application would work for me. I used 1" x 6" pine planking for the floor, rather than OSB.

I like Ray's idea... Here what I used. http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/rb-rubber-multi-mat-rolled-rubber-1-4-in-thick-sold-by-the-foot

First, I don't think it would be a very safe idea. Secondly, I doubt it would stay lit. There is a sail switch that has to be made for the flame safequard to allow the burner to light and stay lit. Between the air turbulence on the inlet and exhaust of the combustion chamber changing the airflow...

Plugged vent in the gas cap? If not, start looking for a plugged screen in the fuel tank.

I have a 2009 BH 3670RL that was manufactured in December 2007 also. That is an added feature - about $150 option at the time of purchase, as I recall. It is a tactic used to maximize the loan values and the resale value of the industry, much like the fact that the 2014 model cars were available...

The terms of service pretty much prohibits it for mobile service. The dish can only be setup or provisioned by a certified installer (if your one to follow the rules). This is because of the risks and laws governing RF radiation exposure. There is a lack of portable or mobile automatic equipment...

Our '09 3670 has screws holding the front fascia trim in place. They are under wooden buttons that are glued into countersunk holes. They can be pried out with a straight slot screwdriver or gently twisted out with a pair of pliers.

Hi Lakeside, First, I wouldn't trust the monitor panel to be a "perfect" indicator. Second, You really can't read the 2 separate battery voltages, charged or discharged, with your voltmeter as they are connected in parallel. Third, your reading of over 15 volts (after letting the batteries rest)...

If you look at standard efficiency filters, they represent very little restriction as long as they are kept clean. Put one in if you like. Yes, you can potentially have problems with restricted air flow. You can fail to make the sail switch or overheat the heat exchanger. The likelihood of...

There was a Tech Service Bulletin on the 2011 Duramax for a faulty fuel suction pressure sensor. I don't have the bulletin number, but believe it was released about December of 2011. The function of the sensor is to trip the "change filter message" when the filter began to get restrictive to...

It is normally mounted in the return air plenum of the Air Conditioner. I have 2 Honeywell programmable thermostats, I don't recall the exact model numbers. I got them at Home Depot. By setting the setpoints a degree or two apart, I can operate the two air conditioners somewhat in a lead-lag...

Hi Tom and Sondra, You have to remove the Dometic Thermostat, remove the Dometic Digital Interface box, add an analog interface box, and replace the 3 conductor wire with multi-conductor (5 or 6) wire. You can learn more by reading the Heating and Cooling User Guide in the manuals section of...

Once a battery has been run completely dead, it will have a reduced capacity forever, as well.
