New to RVing.....please help
I just got a coachmen apex 31' and have been reading all the manuals and watching a ton of videos. And so I went there to where its stored and checked all the inventory that it had. Now there were a f...

Picture 1) Water pressure regulator
Picture 2) From top to bottom it is mostly winterizing equipment. I see
Picture 3) A 90deg elbow for city water hook up. Mount the elbow on the RV so the hose drops straight down. Helps keep the hose from kinking while hook to the RV.
Picture 4) Probably grease for the trailer ball.
Picture 5) Again multiple items.
Picture 5) Two fresh water hoses. One has a has a shutoff valve threaded onto it.
Picture 6)
Picture 7) Sewer hose support. Holds the hose up off the ground with a slight decline from RV to dump inlet.
Picture 2) From top to bottom it is mostly winterizing equipment. I see
- Clear tubing to suck antifreeze out of the jug.
- The pressure regulator from picture #1.
- Adapter to use air pressure to blow out the lines for winterizing.
- A modified air hose fitting that comes to a point. My guess is to be able to apply air pressure to a hose that does not have a threaded end. To the left of the adapter is a cut open fitting, never seen anything like that. But I would hazard a guess that it's used like a funnel of some sort, maybe to add bleach to the gravity fill port when sanitizing the fresh water tank come spring.
- 30-15 amp electrical adapter.
- And a Y fitting for the campground spigot to allow you to use the spigot while still hooked up to the RV.

- Green is a standard 125 v 15 amp extension cord.
- Two black coils of coax cable to either a satellite dish or maybe cable tv hookup at a campsite.
- A length of light duty chain, not heavy enough for a safety chain so not sure what previous owner was using it for
- Red funnel looks like an automatic transmission filling funnel.
- Your 90 degree water fitting,
- Your yellow Y adapter for the hose.

- Not sure what the blue stick is for, but it's obviously a length of PEX water tubing. You'll probably find a port somewhere in the fresh water system with a valve that the blue will connect to. Find that port and the use might become obvious.
- The piece of rain gutter is possibly a sewer hose support.
- The white stick with a hose fitting is probably a cleaning wand that you put through the toilet and down into the black tank.
- The gauge is a standard water pressure gauge. I'll bet the previous owner screwed the gauge into the second port of the Y adapter to keep an eye on the campground water pressure spikes.
