heater

Does anyone have a breakdown on the 10 gallon Suburban water heater. I think I have a bad element, but don't know where the element is.

For those who are having problems with their water heaters, here's one more thing to check. The electronics module on the back of the heater. It's stuck onto the insulation around the tank with an adhesive pad, which may or may not actually adhere. If it shakes loose, the plug can come out of...

We do not camp between May and November but use the FW as an extra bedroom. Then the black tank is hooked up to the septic system but we have no need for hot water. Do we drain (it is already turned off) the hot water heater and PUT it in BYPASS? thanks Pat

Helpppp. :confused:Please. I am looking at the owners book and the water heater. I see the pressure release lever above with the drain plate beneath it, however I can't tell where the drain plug is. It states, "drain plug located in the bottom left hand corner, remove plug. I can't tell by...

Ok I am confused. I am picking up a new 2008 31 RED on Monday. How does the water heater work. Gas or Electric, or both. Thanks

Has anyone installed a gas WALL HEATER in their 5iver? What one is the best IYO?

Hey, just started with our 3670 and really enjoying everything. I do have a question about water heater operation. When we picked up our rig I thought the tech said the heater will go auto from electric to gas and vice versa?? However if that is the case what is the 'heater switch' for on my...

I need help locating the bypass valves for the hot water heater, on a 2006 3600RL bighorn, I hooked up the water today no problem with cold water no water going into hot water heater, thanks for any help

We went on a short trip to Penn. this week, so the Landmark got left on a storage lot in Colorado, and with the sub-freezing temps expected we had to winterize it. I flipped both bypass levers and pulled the drain for the HWH. As I was running around inside turning on faucets, my father was...

I just got back from our first trip this year and while camping found that I only had luke warm water (and not much) while using the electric portion of the water heater. I had both electric switches on and will check the element tomorrow. My rig was a year old in Jan. and I used it a lot during...

Hello all, new to forum, I just took posseeeion of a new o8 North Trail 26rks. So before any use and sitting in the drive I was running all the systems. All work but the furnace does work but seems to me to be very lacking in the amount of heat it puts out. The outside temp right now is abt 43...

We're on our maiden voyage but ran into a glitch. Turns out I didn't bring a large enough socket for the anode rod, so I need to go buy one. Anyone know what size socket the anode rod is? Also the threads are horribly rusted...is this normal? Chris

Anybody heard the trend of place a continuous water heater in-line for the times when high volume water is needed? Dealer recomendation. It would have a seperate switch. The draw back is while it is on every bit of water is hot.

I looking to putt a wasp screen on my water heater. I find them for a 6 and 10 gal. units. Does any body know or have the 10 gal unit, and can you measure the vent opening for me so I can see if a 10 gal cover will fit the 12 gal unit. The 12 measures 6.75 X 9 inches.

Being new I have done a search for this but seem to have missed it. The directions say to close the upper (red) valve and the lower (blue) valve and the leave the middle valve open. In my Prowler TT I just had to close the middle valve for the by-pass. Can I just close the middle valve on the...

Can the temperature of the hot water heater by turned down. The hot water is near scalding.

I'm having trouble with my thermostate on '07 3500 Big Horn. It runs for about 5 min then won't come back on unless I go all the way down and then back up. This is on my heater have not tried A/C too cold for that. Wondering if anyone has had similar problem and can tell me what I need to do. I...

We just spent a great 5 days in the Bighorn for Thanksgiving. It was a little cold the first night so I thought I would turn on the FP. Everything works except no heat? fan and ember lighting works fine. It has worked good in the past. Any ideas? Thanks... Steve

I have a new Bighorn 3370. We just got back from are shake out trip. I blew the water out of the lines first. Then I went to winterize with antifreeze and I'm getting antifreeze in the water heater. I had the water heater empty and the anode rod was out. I had the bypass valve set on the...

Probably most of you are familiar with changing out the anode in your water heater. I have owned my Bighorn since the first of Feb. 2008. We are using it full time and I am trying to get our yearly maintenance done. I decided to check out the anode in the water heater. It takes a 1 1/16” half...

Can anyone tell me how I can get my HWH running on propane? My other RV's had a Hot Water Heater swith to use it on propane. I can't seem to find a switch on our Sundance 3200ES.

We are a little disappointed in the hot water heater on our 31BHD. With the water heater capacity being limited to 6 gallons, I used to turn up the temperature on our last trailer so we'd use less hot water and more cold to prolong the length of shower time. This was especially helpful when...

I know my water heater used to work on gas but now i'm having problems with it.As i understand the switch in with the water heater needs to be on so it will work on gas.The water heater has electronic ignition instead of a pilot light and i'm getting gas to the valve but i can't see or hear any...

Can anyone advise what size wrench does the anode rod take on the 3670RL?

I had a Jayco 5er that I traided up for the 3385 Big Horn... On the Jayco the water heater never had a Alum Rod that went into the water Heater, just a plug... So I put in a small Drain Valve and everytime I was done using the camper for the weekend or for the week I would open the valve and...

My water heater quit working on 120v. Does anyone know where the heating element is located on these things?

We are new to this forum as we just purchased a 2006 Landmark 5th Wheel. In order for us to get hot water, we must have both of the switches turned on (gas and electric). Are we doing something wrong? Because we bought this unit used, we did not get very much literature to refer to. Any...

Hi All, I have a new Big Country and having a bit of an issue with my water heater. I live quite a way from my dealer so I am hoping this is something I can handle myself. It seems that when I am running on gas, some times the igniter does not light the gas? It sits and clicks for a while but...

Our 2998 did not have a water heater manual when we purchase it. can anyone explain the basic operation of this thing? On our first outing I ran it off of propane and it worked fine, but when we woke up after the first night we had no hot water. I flipped the electric switch and ran and got...
