water heater
I just purchased a 1997 Dodge Roadtrek 190. It has a water heater but nothing I am seeing in the manuals tells about how to operate it. There is an on/off switch on the wall but I'm a little afraid of...

If you go to the Roadtrek website you can download the original brochure for you RV. I did that for my '95 that I got last fall and found all kinds of useful info. If you are like my 190 Versatile you will have a Suburban water heater. The water drain plug is also an anode rod that needs periodic replacement to prevent corrosion of the tank. Just filling the fresh water tank with fresh water and turning on the pump will fill the water heater. On mine I can check the water lines to and from the heater under the seat on R. Rear. I also got all of the original manuals and all bills for service since new. I got a new anode rod for $12. from Holland Motor Homes. I have an Atwood heater in my other MH and they don't use the anode rod. Both work great but one has a glass lined tank and the other uses an anode rod for corrosion protection.
