Coach water system schematic

I have a WorkHorse chassis manual, I have the Coachman's Owner's manual, and I have the brochure on the coach a 2007 Coachman Epic, but for the life of me I cannot find a schematic of the water (or for that matter any system) installed by the manufacturer after receiving the chassis? Coachman was absorbed by Forest River a few years ago but when my Coachman was assembled it was the Coachman plant. Anyone know of a source for the what's hidden inside the walls/floors of your coach?

  • Good for you. Nice to hear a positive outcome from a problem. I've got to weed thru and find a good service facility in the Phoenix AZ market. There are a lot of bad ones here. Need one of the good ones. Glad you had such a positive expierience, thanks for sharing.
  • OP Update: Received an email from Forest River with the coach's complete schematic! Two thumbs up to:

    I would hope that the nearest dealer's shop would have a schematic! I looked at the new Coachman in 2004 when I was in the market to buy a new coach and Coachman had one of the best water systems on the market IMHO.

    It is probably going to be a very long wait. I don't know of anyone who gives schematics for the water lines on their coaches.

    I contacted fleetwood asking for electrical and plumbing schematics for my coach. I gave them all the numbers I could find on the various data tags.
    They said they never built a coach with those numbers.

    You can try contacting the present manufacturer and see if they kept any of the old records. Don't be surprised if they come back with "No, we didn't keep any of that stuff!"
    good luck.


    I contacted Forrest River who now owns the brand and they've asked for the 17digit vehicle number and I just sent it to them -- we'll see! There has to schematics -- specific length of copper pipe, placement for weight, etc.,


    I have a 06 Coachmen I had no luck trying to get electrical drawings from FR. Hope you have good luck. Gary

  • It is probably going to be a very long wait. I don't know of anyone who gives schematics for the water lines on their coaches. I would suggest making your own by following water lines as far as possible in the basement and seeing where they go up to the various faucets. I can follow many of the lines in my Coach that way.
