water heater bypass

Good day to all. This is my first week of ownership. 2021 Roo 23fk. I have searched the forum before posting this thread. I am big time confused! I know that when I attach a city water hose and fill, it will fill the 6 gal heater tank and I am not to turn on the electric "on" switches before...

Brand new to forum but have lurked here for some time. I've looked high and low and can't find how to access the hot water tank bypass valves on my 2021 16fqbl. Not wanting to winterize at this time, just gathering all the info I can on our new RV. Thanks!!

I'm thinking of changing my one-valve hot water heater bypass to a two-valve system. The single valve works fine for bypassing the inlet to prevent antifreeze from entering. But recently, I noticed a foul taste coming from the water heater and bypassing it didn't prevent that water from entering...

Good afternoon, I recently purchased a 2021 Rockwood Roo 233S and de-winterized it. I could not figure out how to access the rear of the water heater to turn off the bypass switch. Does the couch lift up? Or do I need to remove/unscrew one of the wood panels to access it? Thanks in advance...

Hey all!! I did a search but couldn’t find an answer. Does anyone know where the water heater bypass is located? Has anyone found it yet?

Hello. We just recently purchased a 27bhs and am trying to locate water heater bypass valve for dewinterization. So far, no luck! Any hep would be greatly appreciated

Just prepping for my first outing in my Puma Palomino. I have dewinterized and reset the bypass valves. This unit only seems two have two valves - one at cold, one at hot. The videos I’ve seen show a third valve but my system doesn’t have the third one. Is that normal or am I missing something?

Hello all. I am the proud owner of a 2021 Surveyor Legend RKLE. I have yet to dewinterize and I am seeking expertise from everyone on where the water heater bypass valves can be accessed. Water heater is located in the front portion under Murphy Bed/closet but I am unable to find access to it...

Good morning! I am the proud owner of a 2018 Salem FSX 200RK and for the life of me, I cannot determine how to access the water heater bypass valve for when the time comes to de-winterize. I had a dealer winterize, but they want beau coup bucks to de-winterize. I believe it to be behind a...

Thanks all from Henderson Beach State Park in Destin FL. First time using my 2021 GeoPro 16BH but this probably applies to other model years. This is my 5th RV. Waited 7months for this unit (we all know why LoL) & pretty much took it right out on the road since I had reservations. Unit was...

I have a 2021 Coachmen Freedom Express 238BHS. I'm trying to locate the water heater bypass so I can winterize. Thanks.

I have a 2020 Cardinal Limited. Does anyone know the location of the water heater bypass valves? Thanks!

Probably clear to most but I am confused on bypassing TRUMA water heater. Attached is a picture. Do I just turn both handles in opposite directions? I know about draining the reservoir. Thanks in advance.

I'm winterizing our Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite 2891BH. I have opened the drains at the low point and removed the anode plug, but I can't seem to locate the bypass valves for the water heater. I pulled out the drawers under the kitchen sink so I can see the back of the W.H., but I don't see...

Does the 2011 Georgetown 360DS have water heater bypass valves? Thank you very much in advance. Roger

I recently purchased a 2014 ultralight HFS 27 by forest river, I can't find the hot water heater bypass valve. The hot water heater is on the left side of the rig in front of the slide, there are no valves underneath or under the fridge on the opposite side of the rig. I recently attached water...

Hello everyone. We picked up our 2020 NOBO 19.1 just as the covid 19 was closing everything down. We didn't get a very good PDI or walkthrough. I keep seeing talk about water heater bypass valves. Does the 19.1 have this and if so where?

When our 2400Q was scheduled to be on the production line we drove up to the plant for a tour to see it being built. I was given permission to take the following photos while on our tour. The photos in this series are not necessarily our "Q" but were taken in several units in various stages of...

Though you can get a water heater bypass kit, it's a simple thing to do yourself, since it just takes a couple of valves, tubing and elbows. Sorry the scan is sideways, the instructions were on a long sheet that was folded in half and so it scanned oddly. :D

I am not sure if I am missing something but I don't think I am able to bypass my water heater with my setup. This leads me to believe the only effective way to winterize will be to fill the entire system with antifreeze and pump it through. I think I will just add another shutoff valve to the...

I am winterizing my 2007 378 for the first time. I reached into the compartment for the water heater and closed the one valve I could find. However, when I removed the anode a second time (after draining the tank) just to check, I was spayed with pressurized antifreeze.Why did the tank fill? Did...
