Hello. We just purchased a fifth wheel, the 2017 Salem hemisphere 386qb. It’s a 43’. Purchased from a private seller and no info/manuals/anything. How many batteries should this unit have? Thank you. Are there rear leveling jacks—we didn’t see any. So many questions—anyone have this unit that’s...
Ok, I admit I am a bit off, I like camping in my RV in the winter time. We love to take the camper to ski resorts for a week or month of skiing. Of course that means freezing temperatures. My record low... -22f, that's crispy cold. Fortunately that was in a former camper and not the Salem.
The...
Does anyone have this floorplan? We saw it at a camping show recently and the kids went crazy over the secret room. If so, how do you like it?
My concern would be with the bunks in the slide and closed off from the rest of the camper would it get really cold/hot? There probably isn’t much...
Hi there! Just picked up a new 2023 178BHSK. The extra supports are on it and I was just wanted to know from those of you who have had this completed, does it seem to be sufficient? Any further issues with the water tank at all? Thanks for the information
I've been looking over a few posts and would like to get verification of my understanding.
Trailer came "Solar Ready" with a 10amp Furrion plug on the side. I think this means, if I plug in a solar panel it will help charge the on board battery. There is no battery management, it is just a...
Good morning. I just purchased a new Salem FSX 290 RTK. It has some upgrades, one of wich is a 50 amp power supply. When I plug my Progressive EMS in it has led readouts showing voltage and amperage used on each leg of the 50 amp service. Leg 2 never shows any amperage usage.
Does anyone know...
I have a 2017 Salem T32BHDS. I would like to add a vent to the master bedroom. I dont know if I am pre-wired or if the roof has a framed opening. I can live with out power if I have to. How do I find out if my model has these features? Has anyone done this?
I recently purchased a Salem Hemisphere 29xbhl. I want to install a small TV and mounting bracket. In the bunk house. I've heard that some of the backing material is aluminum and sometimes it's plywood. Has anyone determined what is in their travel trailers? It would be nice to know before I...
Hi and thanks in advance (as usual) for any input!
After considering some really good input on this forum I'm going to go half and half, with one battery (for now) to replace NO batteries and a small-ish solar generator.
Question: anyone know what group size the batteries that came with the...
Hi, and thanks in advance for any input!
I have a 2015 Salem T21RBS. It's sitting stationary in a park and when we bought it three years ago it had no batteries (cables are just sitting there loose; we run off shore power with no problems 24/7/365). I'd like to replace the batteries for power...
Hi,
We recently purchased a used 2018 Forest River Salem, model 27RKSS. I'm about to winterize it so I've crawled under it looking for the low-point drains and cannot find them anywhere. Could somebody point me in the right direction? Is it possible there aren't any?
Thanks.
Brad
Not sure if this is the correct forum so if Mods want to move this OK.
I'm looking at buying a '23 Salem that lists "Best in class value package", "comfort and convenience package" and "Artic package" yet I have searched FR's website, the Salem sub-website and the entire WWW and cannot seem to...
Hi! I am new to ths forum and just purchased a 2023 31KQBTS. It was delivered without a battery, so I bought one but don't want to mess it up when installing. In addition to the + and negative cables there are some labeled "solar". Do they go to the 12V battery?
Evening all,
Wasn't sure where to start bbuutt this seemed fairly proper so, apologies if this is the wrong sub-forum and please delete / move as needed.
This is sorta my crash course into RV'ing so I'm gonna have some pretty dumb questions. First RV, never towed one, or really spent much time...
