Thanks JoeT - so the unconnected hose was on the outside wall. I think mine is probably connected because I do feel a small flow. Maybe a blockage that I have to check. I just wanted to make sure...

Serrano 34M

Don't see this model on the Thor Website any more. Did Thor dump this model. I really like the interior layout with the L-shaped couch. Don't see anything like it in the new models.
