filter.. That's a good idea...the fresh water tank will have some mildew build up inside if you don't treat the water and flush before trips. Let me know what works under the sink for you. Maybe the hose t's off to the bathroom sink too, so that will be filtered also.

filter How about an external filter between the Hilo and fresh water supply? That way, all of the water is filtered. That's what I use.

Neighbors... Nice to have neighbors with HiLos...welcome..and I was looking at my Adco cover today. It is falling apart and already has a hole in it. I'm starting a building next week for the HiLo. This is the second Adco cover and both lasted almost 2 years. I didn't buy the second one; Adco...

30 amp outlet Have an electrician run you a 30 amp outlet to your garage. Chances are that you will have a circuit that he can tap into to get you a dedicated outlet for the HiLo. When I built my home, I had a 50 amp outlet installed, plus a dump station for when I returned from a camping...

Cover Adco also makes one that is grey in color and warranted for 2 years. Stay away from that one; it will fall apart in less than 2 years in the Florida sun. I live in Odessa, Fl. which is the West Central part of Fl. I am building a permanent carport cover for mine; a painter's tarp made...

Antenna Be sure that you turn the antenna back to the starting position before lowering it. "Front to back" position.

switch This is an amplifier for your tv signal when it is in the on position. I don't know if this works with the frequencies of high definition that is used today. Try it in the on position with your HDTV converter box with the antenna up and the switch in the on position. My converter box...

heater problem.. Yes, it's probably the safest thing to do at this point to have a pro check it out.

Propane heater There should be an igniter at the base of the propane heater. Make sure the propane tank gas valve is off and check to see if there is an obstruction like a wasp nest or other insect nest causing an obstruction. Look to see if any electrical wires are loose on the igniter. Use...

Great bunch of HiLo guys! Thanks a million! I probably have walked right by those hydrants at Home Depot; I 'll check them out. Regards to you all.

We do plus we have a brake control module.

For a 2207 model HiLo. I need the plastic spigot that's located on the right side bottom of the camper. If anyone knows of a source, I'd apreciate it. The knob on top is cracked. Have to use visegrips to turn it. Ha.

Solar battery charger I added a solar panel to trickle charge my battery when it's parked; this works great. I also added a digital volt meter which displays the current battery voltage while it is parked; I left this under the front access cover behind the propane tanks so that it is readable...

Service Manuals? Are there any service manuals out there? Surely there are some manuals from dealers out there that we could put on this forum. Photographs of procedures would be helpful. Maybe a Utube on a certain service procedure, like lubing the lift mechanism, etc..

bummer... That's why I couldn't get any help from the parts dept.. OK, we need to all help one another with parts sources, service info and general help. Maybe we could start a special "maintenance, parts and problem" topic area for us dummies that are new to everything about a Hi-Lo. You...

If you are just charging battery... No, the 12 volt switch should be off if you are just charging your battery. If you turn on your 12 volt switch, you will be discharging your battery while the solar panel is trying to charge the battery. You can purchase a 12 volt monitor that has a digital...

thanks... Thanks for the response regarding shower curtains; we will make some. The clothespin is a great idea too. We have learned to leave the door closed to the shower area when we leave the dogs alone. Regards, and have a safe 4th of July.

Hilo parts department?? I finally got through to the Hilo parts dept. I inquired about a part; the gentleman was real nice, saying that he would check on the part and call me back. This was a week ago...I'm still waiting. This doesn't sound good..is Hilo going under??? I'm really frustrated..

HiLo not responding... Thanks; I'll try again..I didn't know that they were only manning the phones in the morning. I'll let you know the out come of my next attempt. I would go to my dealer, but they closed in Tampa, Fl.

Where can I find some replacement shower curtains? My dog got mad and tried to eat my shower curtains. I guess she wanted to go fishing; anyway since I can't get in touch with HiLo, does anyone have a suggestion on what will fit and where to buy? Thanks. :)

What's going on with HiLo and requesting parts?? This is NO way to run a business and STAY in business. After leaving a message TWO weeks ago, no one cares enough to call me back. I realize that business is down everywhere in the RV business; but parts support is business! HiLo needs to get...

ADCO Cover..my experience.. I bought an ADCO cover for my 22T and it lasted 2 years, then fell apart at the seams. I phoned the company and they were real nice. They asked me where I lived and I told them FLORIDA. I was told that the SUN rots the ADCO cover. Well, what are you suppose to do...

ants ants ants.. The only problem that I've had was ants. Be sure to scout your camping spot and carry some ant poison to spread around your tires, jacks and front tongue of trailer. Wasp spray is good to carry also; the vents on any rv are great places for wasps to build nests. I've had...

Cost of bearing grease job? What does the dealer charge for a lube job?

Does the heater add-on feature work very well on this A/C unit? I was thinking about ordering the kit; it just plugs in and there is a switch position for the heater. Thanks for any info..
