    3850 fresh water tank

    Still working out bugs on new rig. Most seem related to water system. I have already discovered that when the water gauge shows 1/3 it is empty for all practical purposes. The pump won't pick up anymore. Yet When you drain the tank it will drain for over 30 minutes. When we went camping this...

    I have a Bighorn 3100RL, 09 model. How do you figure out which air vent goes to which tank?

I have two grey tanks and...

    Slow Draining Grey Tank

    My black tank drains great, my grey tank(s) not so. The shower tank especially (the kitchen tank rarely gets used) is really slow draining. Anyone have this problem or have any idea what might be wrong?

    Why 3 Fresh water tank vents

    Bought a slightly used 2006 2955RL. There are 3 1/2in tubings near the rear. 2 of which puke out 1/3 of my fresh water supply. I solved the problem by stuffing baby carrots into 2 of them qnd a 1/4 turn valve into the 3rd one to facilitate filling but it bugs me where they go and what they are...

    Fresh Water Tank Treatment

    I was wondering how often you guys treat your freash water holding tank? I store mine empty (well as empty as it will get with the drain open) and rarely use it, as we try to find full hookups. But as I was filling it yesterday, I thought that I should probably be treating it. So if you do...

    Hi everyone, The last few times we've been out in our 3055RL, I have simply left the drain hose connected to both the trailer and the screw in fitting at the campground. When the tanks get to about 3/4 full, I go outside and drain them in order from bottom to top. Am I doing things correctly...

    Problems filling Fresh water tank

    I have tried filling my fresh water tank twice now (only had unit 13 days). Seems like there is 1/2 as much water flowing back out of the fill tube as there is going in. Didn't realize that the water would find its way into my basement but it did. That is not a problem but the backflow is...

    #1 Gray tank drain valve problem

    I was draining my tanks yesterday and when I went to push in (close) the drain valve on my #1 it didn't engage or close the valve off. It now feels disconnected from the valve mechanism (free play). Has anyone else had this happen? I had to remove my sewer line because when left open the...

    The holding tank flusher in my 3670 leaks. It appears that the PEX tubing leading up to the anti-siphon vacuum breaker (hidden in the wall) was nicked by either a screw or staple.

    built-in black tank flush system question

    I smiled at the brochure photo of the "competition" cleaning out the black water tank, wrapped up in hosing and holding his nose. My question: Is this system really helpful, and does it work as well as the company claims it does?

    3300SK Fresh Water Tank Problem

    Can you tell me if the 3300SK has a pick up tube inside the fresh water tank? My water outlet hose (that connects to the pump) exits the fresh water tank about 1/3 of the way up and as a result only about 2/3rds of it's capacity is available. Since it appears to share the same outlet with the...

    Only Able to Access 2/3 of Fresh Water Tank

    I have a 2008 3300SK. When we dry camp, only about 2/3 of the fresh water tank will flow until the pump begins to suck air. When I pull the bottom insulation away enough to see the fresh water tank, it appears that the tank outlet hose (that travels up to the pump) is mounted about 1/3 of the...

    Slow draining gray tank

    I was attempting to empty Gray #1 and was getting a very slow flow, even though it was at least 2/3 full. Hooked up my Drain Flush adapter and backflowed it a couple of times. Something white flashed past in the clear extension and the drain flowed fine after that. Must have been some...

    Anyone willing to share thoughts on the ABC's of how they go about chlorinating/disinfecting the fresh water tank? The frequency it should be done? :confused: Don't know how often it should be done but it seems to me it should be as simple as adding some clorox, filling to overflow and...

    Using Fresh Tank

    During dewinterizing, and sanitizing, I bled the air out of all the water lines, hot and cold. I still noticed air belching when I pump out of the freshwater tank. I verified the valving, and it is correct. I pressurized the system, and turned the pump off. The next day, I turned the pump back...

    How do you carry your portable dump tank? I'm talking about the one you dump your RV waste tanks into and then tow to the dump station. I currently strap it in the bed of the truck but I'd like to figure out an easy way to hang it from the rear ladder. Any ideas? Thanks,

    anyone added a fresh water tank fill valve?

    Has anyone added a valve and a "tee" fitting the fill the fresh water while connected to city water. My old fleetwood class C had one, it made it real easy to fill the tank. I know the danger of pressure filling the tank, but I believe it can be done safely. your thoughts.
