    Hot water heater plumbing question

    Hello, I'm looking to see if I can fit a plumbing accumulator/expansion tank to the water lines in my 2023 Sunseeker 2400B. I have to question why this is not a standard feature on all RVs? It would make the life of the water pump much easier. Anyways, in looking around, one thing I noticed...

    New Keystone owner with a plumbing issue

    Like the title says, new to Keystone. My camper came pre-winterized, so I made sure to follow site and youtube videos to de-winterize my 175BK Hideout properly. My issue is, when I get to the step where I turn on the water, it sputters for a few seconds and then stops. If I turn off the water...

    Plumbing issues...

    2023 25rds Hideout. It appears the kitchen sink is plumbed to drain into the black tank instead of the grey tank. The kitchen sink and toilet share a common wall so I assume they just took the path of least cost and drained the sink into the same line as the toilet. This is a major issue...

    Gravity Solids Trap before graywater tank?

    Is there a screened solids trap I can install in my ABS DWV piping which has a drawer or other means of easily emptying the solids once it's full? It would be nice to be able to use the kitchen sink like in a house with a erator (garbage disposal) with a P-trap to stop smell coming back up from...

    Plumbing Issues/Leaks Question

    Hi all, I've been considering purchase of a Europa or DX3 32KD. They seem to fulfill almost all of the things I'd like in an RV. But seeing so much in general about quality issues with RVs has me proceeding cautiously with such a big expenditure. My question for this group: have many of you...

    Bath Sink Plumbing Question

    Have 2009 Cedar Creek 34SATS Have a slow leak under the bathroom sink and for the life of me I cannot find the leaking spot. There is a cold water line that appears to be some sort of vent (perhaps). It is a U shape and both lines go down through the floor. I see no water in the clear part...

    Fixing Factory Plumbing Mistakes

    I'm not sure if anyone has posted these YouTube videos previously but I thought they are interesting. I know that a lot of FRF members have had problems with poor plumbing practices by FR's various brands so I thought I would post links to these videos for some discussion.

    Potable Water Tank Issue

    My potable water tank is filling up slowly but constantly while hooked up to city water. I am not running city water through the tank fill port, just to clarify. I am guessing either the water pump or a valve has failed/is failing. I can't find a reliable diagram of the fresh water system...

    My wife and I just got into a used 2015 Catalina 343qbds. We've got a few issues, but my primary concern is water. We're hooked up to city water, but my freshwater tank is backfilling, and the pump under the sink isn't pulling water from the tank. I can't figure out how to drain my freshwater...

    We have a 2019 FR Berkshire 37A with a washer and dryer. The washer works fine but there is a leak, I believe somewhere in the discharge pipe. I ran two rinse cycles and water was dripping outside right above the mudflap. I can't find any water inside around the washer. I put the washer...

    2020 Cedar Creek plumbing question

    I'm about to become a first time RV owner as I close on the purchase of a 2020 Cedar Creek Hathaway Edition 34IK in a couple of weeks. I wonder if Cedar Creek's black tank flush plumbing is similar to the description in post #1 in the attached link below? I realize the discussion at the link...

    Access Panel For Plumbing

    On the 2023 FR3 30DS, there is an access panel door just forward of the water heater, that provides access to the water pump, heater bypass and winterization hose -- everything you need to winterize the unit. But when you open the door, the access is blocked by a flimsy cardboard panel with a...

    265BH Leak under shower

    Found water puddling on the bathroom floor, traced it back to underneath the shower. The leak is coming from the connection of hoses in the pictures but obviously isn’t easily accessible. Any idea how to access it to replace would be helpful.

    Combining plumbing lines?

    We just bought a 2019 Flagstaff T21DMHW last weekend. I have spent the week trying to get a feel for it. One thing I already see that would make sense is having the shower lines and sink connected together so it can empty into a single gray water tank instead of 2 separate hoses. Has anyone done...

    Hi there, 2018 Sunseeker 2850S LE. I travel through the winter. Last winter was great except on a couple of really cold nights I had a frozen pipe under the floor somewhere between the shower and bathroom (no water pressure in bathroom but fine in kitchen and shower). I remedied this by...
