Yes, twodownzero the water heater is full. Steam isn't coming out of the faucet, Its just the water is so hot that it steams in the sink when it comes out. I ran water thru it(hot spigot) from the
city water connection for 30 min. to get the rust out. Then I filled the potable water tank to check the pump. Pump works fine. Then I lit the HWH and waited to see if it worked. It did and shut off, but when I tried the hw, it was so hot I figured this can't be normal. It would burn your skin if you held it under the sink faucet. I shut it down, and reset the temp setting(in outside box by thermocoupler) to low and fired it up the next day. Did the same thing, water temp wise. It had run 25 min, I timed it the second time, but I shut it down, nothing had changed.
I don't have the manuals or I wouldn't be bothering you guys. The guy I bought it from had forgot the manuals when I picked up the camper at a storage unit. Now, after several e-mails he still hasn't sent me them. Now I need to know how to purge everything for the fall, I never really used the camper yet, but will for hunting.
Mooringproduct, you have the exact same unit I got, minus the A/C.
I may need your help, old buddy ole pal!!
I try and post a picture of the outside box set up if I figure out how.
