    Hot Water Heater Questions

    I’m a new owner of a 2006 Crossroads Zinger 24FB. It has an electric/propane hot water heater. I have it hooked up to city water but can’t figure out how to fill the heater or the tank. I’m guessing there is a bypass somewhere based on some research but I have no idea where that would be on my...

    Low point Drain for Hot water tank 212QBW

    I went to de-winterize today. Opened low point hot and cold lines and antifreeze came out. Opened white low point near the hot water tank and water came out. I had drained the hot water tank by removing the anode rod before dewinterizing. I guess I must have forgotten to open the low point...

    Water System Question from a newbie

    So let’s say I want to go boondocking in my 17B. I fill the freshwater tank and the hot water tank before I head out. I don’t use any hot water the entire time, but I do use all of my freshwater. Is there a way to still use that hot water (not necessarily heated)? My impression is, once the...

    No gas lighting for hot water tank

    Hey guys my hot water tank won’t light for gas. The electric heats just fine but no gas. The furnace is working so I know I have propane. I have turned off the lp switch and waited 5 min and turned back on and no lighting at all.

    Hot water tank bath

    I am about to give my Atwood water heater a vinegar/water solution bath. A couple of questions. A couple of resources suggested not to take off the pressure relief valve to pour it in but rather use the country fill/winterizing tube to make it easier. How do I avoid the solution just filling...

    Hot water reset light

    I have a 2013 Escape 17B that I recently purchased and now now starting to use it. I discovered the hot water tank gas and ignition were both not engaging when I turn on the hot water switch. The problem was that the reset switch needed to be replaced within the outside cabinet. Upon...

    Hot water by-pass all the time?

    I have yet another question for the community.... Has anyone heard of keeping the hot water heater by-pass, by-passing the water heater all the time? We don't use the shower as its a storage closet for all our stuff. And we have in the past just heated water in a pan for the various washing with...

    Ace 29.1 Hot Water Tank

    I have a 2012 Ace 29.1 that has developed a small leak from below the hot water tank when the pump is on, and leaks more if on city water (probably due to higher water pressure) It seems to be cold water, so I am assuming that the leak is from the water tank inlet. I am not able to access the...

    Hot water humming noise

    Our 2017 19 has the Suburban SW6D hot water heater. Today I was getting the trailer set up for the season and checked the anode, filled the fresh water tanks, flushed the system, switched the by-pass levers back to allow the tank to fill, re-flushed the lines and turned on the control panel hot...
