plumbing

Hey everyone. I tried to find something in the forums about this and may have missed the mark. My son bought a 10 Cu. ft. fridge/freezer, hoping to use this in his skoolie. It is a smaller residential fridge. He plans to travel all summer and sometimes off the grid. He bought this BEFORE he did...

My wife and I are getting down to the last elements of our build, and because of our time constraints we are asking if anyone in the Phoenix area would be willing to help us hook up the grey water plumbing. We have a shower pan, just need to install it, and pipe down to the grey water. Sink is...

These fittings are for my hot water bypass system. I want to get a couple more for spares. I would prefer brass fittings if possible. I'm a plumbing novice so I'd appreciate any advice (pics or links would be a bonus). Happy travels!

I have a 2020 2251le. The water system works when hooked to city water. However, when I fill the water tank, use the water pump, and run water in the rv, water shoots out of the city water input spot. I cannot figure out how to fix this. Can anyone please help? Thank you!

Wondering what tool is needed to take off under body cover to assess leak in bathroom where black and gray exits underbody I have 2021 forest River Freedom express passport BH 257

I was adding some shut off (stop valves) to my hot and cold lines under my sink in the kitchen of the RV as a precaution in case I ever need to shut the water off to the sink. It got me thinking where else should I add a shut off/stop valve to in the RV. The obvious places I thought was the...

Hey all! I have a 2021 320MKS. That unit has a 120V mini fridge in the outdoor kitchen compartment of the passenger side slider. On the inside of the coach, the back of that fridge is behind a wood panel next to my stove right across from the sink island. Since I never use that outdoor fridge...

Hi gang. FYI I did search the forum first before posting this. I came across this video about using a water softener in addition to a water filter. https://youtu.be/DvXYGftsQ30 Wondering if it is worth it. Any thoughts, ideas, experiences, etc. Thanks.

Hi everyone. First post, but I've gathered a lot of info just browsing the site. Thanks to everyone for all the tips! I have a new to me 2017 A214HW. Trying to get it all squared away before taking it out on our first trip. The previous owner told me he had a freeze event where the water filter...

So here’s the tale of a perfectly ordinary RV’er into the dark world of waterlines and tie wraps. It all starts rather innocently, on an ordinary morning after at a 14Km run around Fountain Of Youth in Niland CA. Got a phone call from a disgruntled wife saying she wants me back at the rig in...

Was just wanting to know if any one could explain how to gravity drain my plumbing pipes in my 2019 cardinal luxury 5 th wheel so there is not much water in them to freeze. I have three pet pipes sticking down through the underbelly up near the front of the coach. One on them had a cap on it...

Just purchased a SL 29RK model. I went through the walkthrough with the dealer. Sorry in advance for the simplicity of my question. Where’s the fuse box location. I saw it when I went through my walkthrough last month. Can’t find it. Thanks! Also, had anyone done DIY drawings of the electrical...

I do not have a washer and dryer in my 2022 345IK and I have read that some people have had orvan reroute the shower drain into the washer grey tank since only the bathroom sink and washer goes into one and the shower and kitchen sink go into the other grey tank. Has anyone rerouted this...

Frustrated 2021 Rockwood Ultra Lite 2614BS owner here. Picked up my trailer from the dealer after waiting six months for warranty work. Took the trailer to a local campground to check everything out before taking heading out of town. Connected city water, and everything worked fine for about...

For those of you with FE buses with underbelly storage behind the rear axles... where have you put your water tanks? I'm thinking of putting my fresh water tank under the bed/centered, but still up in the air about placement of grey water tank. Have you reinforced the underbelly compartment if...

I’ve been searching the internet for a simple plumbing diagram if a 2021 2801BHS travel trailer. Nothing. They have MINNIE WInnie manuals and plumbing diagrams but ZERO for the Minnie series. No ops manuals, no plumbing or wiring diagrams of any MINNIE travel trailers. Why??? They can’t...

Hey all, recently we purchased a 2017 Clipper 17fq. Doing our prep for camping today we sanitized the water tank and lines and went on to dump the gray and black tanks and had a lot of trouble due to the drain pointing upwards working against gravity as opposed to horizontal or downward . I...

Hello! Hoping someone might have the answer to a plumbing question here: While winterizing the RV, I noticed a valve (circled in green). I know the cold water T's off and goes to the hot water heater (orange arrow) or to the kitchen sink (blue arrow) but where does it go when it branches off...

I have been boondocking since May when I bought my trailer hauling in water. Just moved to a new location. Connected everything and had to go for a day. Came back and my fresh water tank is full (from city connection. And leaking out the fresh water connect outlet. As well as leaking out side...

We love our new Tandara fifth wheel, but we've run into a couple issues, both relating to the water system. 1) Our fresh water system is supposed to be a massive 63 gallons, three times what we had in our old camper! With the camper it would last almost a week before needing a refill. That's...

Dear Forum Members: I got on my roof tonight to put on my rv cover and noticed a white plumbing pipe that was missing its top cover. I cant seem to locate a diagram of the top of my rv so I can know where the pipe goes and what it is for. Obviously i need to get a replacement cover, but i...

I'm winterizing for the first time and have the water heater bypass figured out, but what does this valve do?

I don't think I did this right the first time, so if it is somewhat duplicative, please accept my apology in advance. I am completely new to the skoolie community (just recently learning I needed to substitute a k for ch). I considered a Monaco pusher with tag a few years ago, but I was not...

Hi All! I have a question about how the toilet is plumbed to the black tank in my 2020 Springdale SG280bh. I just replaced my toilet (Dometic 300) and when I removed the old one, I was expecting a straight pipe to the black tank and an odor. Instead, there was NO smell whatsoever and some...
