- sanderson_66ExplorerYeah..I figured you could run with one LP tank. My salesman also said the vacuum exhaust port was an intake. He's a nice guy but selling a lot of different models. Me thinks he gets confused. Thought I'd check with the experts! Loydt/Cruz...do your hi/lo AC fan settings change the fan speed? I agree with you CHV...the more air through the AC the better. Think I might just leave it be. mmmm...stream water...mmmm
- cruzExplorerA/C on mine has 2 speeds ... Furnace has one.
Fuel Tank guage is off. When full it registers 3/4 ... but when it shows 1/2 tank it only takes 4 to 4 1/2 gallons to fill up. (14 gal "steel" tank)
Our shower head barely "dribbles" when in the off position ... doesn't shut off completely ... but close.
Water pump does not seem loud on our unit ... then again the last trailer I had was a hybrid. I think they mounted the water pump directly under the couch ... it was so loud.
Took the screens out of the kitchen and bathroom faucets and cleaned them out ... wow what a difference in water flow. Factory told me the sediment from the new tanks can build up and block the flow ... they sure did on mine!! Can't get into the shower head to clean it out, so may end up with a new one.
CRUZ - M_GO_BLUE1Explorerloydt,
Haven't really noticed that it is off but will keep an eye on it... - CHV_FRKExplorerHmmmm... I may have an issue with mine too. :)
- loydtExplorerFurnace has a single speed fan only. High/Low is for the a/c fan.
M Blue, have you noticed if your genny fuel tank guage is off by a 1/4 tank or so? - CHV_FRKExplorerBoth LPs do not have to be attached. I've run one while I went and had the other filled. You just have to make sure to flip the switch.
High/Low I believe is only for the furnace. I'm sure that's to keep them from freezing up, that's a stab. Anyway, that's the way mine works.
uhhhh....stream water....uhhhhhh..... - M_GO_BLUE1ExplorerNever heard about 2 LP tanks needed to be connected to have anything run in the trailer...our fridge was constantly on LP gas for 9 days with no problem...now with the 2 LP tanks there is a regulator between the two and you turn the "dial" to the one you are drawing fun and make a point of keeping both tanks open when using the fiver so if the LP runs out of one tank it will automatically start drawing from the other tank; at that point switch the dial and get the empty tank filled ASAP so you won't forget
- sanderson_66ExplorerOur shower head does the same thing when switch is off. I thought it may be to prevent the cold blast of water when it's switched back on. I could see how this would be a problem if fresh water was limited. A couple things Jayco has improved (at least on our unit): Closet door latches, furnace heat distribution, fuel tank for gen (steel). I really like the way you can draw water from a stream into the fresh tank. Yes the pump does seem a bit loud. Our dealer said both LP tanks must be connected to run the system. Is this true? Also, the fans on the AC's seem to run at the same speed regardless of whether the speed selection on thermostat is set at hi or low. Anyone else have this occurring? Haven't used the fridge on LP yet so can't help you there Cruz. Thanks for any info. Glad to hear your trip went well Blue! Doug
- CHV_FRKExplorerYou can do like we have at home, actually put a ball valve type shutoff at the hose point of connection. Our pump cycles about like that too. I wish it shut off more so I may look to find another shutoff as well.
- L_MMusicExplorerI don't know. I didn't look at it that closely.
