This is a removeable DVD stand I made out of conduit and wood for the back bunk in our Jayco 23B. swivels and tilted slightly. I also made one that will slide in the post where our regular TV sits for those "Dry camping" days!!







Weather station.



Clock installed above Dinette.



No need to bring a chunk of wood with.

Did you tephlon tape it??? Looks good!!

No I did not I used a gel that the plumbing dept. suggested instead. I don't have the tube nearby but I can say it was a red & white tube and the gel was grey in color. It said to put it around the threads before attaching them. The guy said this works better and last longer then the tephlon tape...

I do not know that they are inside of the trailer when I mentioned the spots you might want to try and find them I meant look outside under those particular areas of the trailer (i.e.: tub/ water heater, or your couch area)

I can find the water tank drain under the Roo, but as far as any drain valves inside, nope. I'll crawl under there again to see, but if this is only to help winterize, I blow air through the lines so I'm not too concerned about lines freezing.

ok thanks going tomorrow to pick up some items before our first voyage out will grab these as well. Yesterday we transferred our stuff from the popup and cleaned the awning WOW!! We have so much more room,...!!!!!

ok here are my low drains I went to Menard's the other day in search of the 1/4 values and they had them.. the guy there showed me how they work using the same type of tubing I had. My question after leaving the store of course was do I need to cut off the bottom where the plugs are now because the the tube he demonstratedhow they work did not have the fitting that I have on mine right now it was just the tube. I have included a photo to what I am referring to.

Thanks VJK & Tracy B

Get the 1/4 turn valves that have a male fitting that will screw into your existing. Just use some tef
lon tape

My Roo 23SS has them, just can't see them unles you crawl underneath, there is no reason to see them on the 23SS because there are valves inside the unit that you use to open (drain) the lines. I would think it to be very similar in your 233S.

[botterbein]

popeye, I thought I didn't have any either, since the saleman who showed me the rig on delivery couldn't find them, so last year, I cut the clamps, drained and winterized. Come spring, when it was time to de winterize, guess what I found tucked under the rig, hidden from sight near the the rear bumper, low point drains.....grrrrrrrrr

[tracyb1101]

ok someone step in if I am not correct in this because I am a newbie.. I believe that every TT has them they are lines that run via your hot & cold water lines. My understanding of them is to open them when draining your system of water during winterizing so that all water will be out of the lines. Mine are located behind my water heater. ( Mine are red for hot water line/ white cold water line they don't all have these colors)there is also a similar one located near your fresh water tank to get all water out of it. when you de-winterize you can also open them to get any extra antifreeze out of the lines...

Let me say you may think you don't have them which I did too (and maybe you don't) but you will not see them unless you really get under your RV they are hidden well it took me a bit to locate mine and I had worked above the area that they are located in and never saw them...

You might look under the area of where you shower is located or I have read they can be located below your couch area.. good luck hope this helps..
