    Gray Water Tank Leak?

    We are full-timers and have had our new5er since June. No issues with the gray tank thus far. We always are on full hookup/city water. We fill the tanks and then dump them once full though. This week we noticed that the gray tank was taking longer to fill than it had in the past. No change in...

    Sewer smell bath toilet/sink

    Out of everything we tried, the only thing that got rid of the smell was bleaching all of our water lines. Smell no more. My husband wonders if he still had water in some of the lines when we left the camper sit for vacation. Who knows but problem solved for us.

    Black tank flush

    Black tank flush broken Ours quit working on our Sundance 2880RLT. Worked fine earlier in the season. We think after traveling that something may have changed its functioning? We can hear water pouring into the tank but it doesn't sound like its spraying or the "running" sound we were hearing...

    Sewer smell bath toilet/sink

    Does anyone happen to have a picture of what their correctly vented roof vents look like? We thought ours were fine when we looked at them. Not loose, but the pipe ended below the bottom part of the cap that goes over the pipe. So if you can envision what I'm trying to explain, when my...

    Sewer smell bath toilet/sink

    We we closed the gray tanks about 2 weeks ago when we returned from vacation and noticed the smell then. We thought that was the culprit but it is not. We intend to use the Calgon, bleach, and dish detergent method tomorrow and we are purchasing cyclone vents for the roof. We capped the AAV in...

    Sewer smell bath toilet/sink

    So we sealed around the vent pipes up on the roof to make sure they weren't leaking into the attic and then we tightened the washer cap all the way down. I did dishes and drained the kitchen sink and now the whole camper smells of sewage. We will cap off the kitchen AAV now but we have no idea...

    Sewer smell bath toilet/sink

    We did both already. - - - Updated - - - Here is the plumbing underneath our bathroom sink. We believe the pipe leading into the wall goes to the roof vent.

    Sewer smell bath toilet/sink

    I will photograph under the bathroom sink b/c it is not the same as the kitchen sink.

    Sewer smell bath toilet/sink

    I know this is a common problem, and we have spent hours scouring the forums reading/eliminating causes for smell. Because we haven't found the cause yet, I'm hoping to elicit opinions in case we've missed something that hasn't been tried. We purchased our new fifth wheel 2015 Sundance 2880RLT...

    Dometic thermostat issues

    We tried recycling or reinitializing the thermostat. That didn't solve our issue. It acted up that night. We finally removed the panel for the return duct and noticed that there was basically no difference in temperature between the vent blowing the cold air and the return. There was a...

    Dometic thermostat issues

    Thanks Bob! We will definitely try this as we have noticed it more and more not starting up. We had a pretty humid day yesterday here in IN and it would not kick on unless we cycled it to Off and then back to ON when we noticed it wasn't kicking on. We had it at 77 during the day and when we...

    Dometic thermostat issues

    I've been keeping a close eye on the thermostat during the day and evening. We haven't had any problems with it since I reported it last week, however I did think because it was so muggy last night that we may have issues. We sure did. I had it set as we normally do at 69 degrees. I woke up...

    Dometic thermostat issues

    Yes. The ambient temp is 73 when cycled off but the temp set on the thermostat is 69. Once you go back and put it on On again, then it will kick on and run again but won't kick back on once the temp climbs above 69 again after it has kicked off. It's bizarre. It only has been happening at night.

    Dometic thermostat issues

    It has been fine generally in the day time and we checked once we arrived home today. It has been unseasonably cool today so we turned the thermostat down to 69 during the day and it adjusted to that temp from 73. And it kicked on again once the temps increased in the camper. I have no idea what...

    Dometic thermostat issues

    We are currently having AC issues with our newly purchased 2015 Heartland Sundance 2880RLT fifth wheel. We purchased the unit in June and have been using the unit extensively since then. We are parked in a full sun lot most days. During the day we have had no problems with the AC keeping up...
