FloJet hissing noise
Have a FloJet (model 03526) water pump in my Cougar that is making a hissing noise and the pump won't shut off. And yes, before you ask, it's not a water leak hissing noise. It is an air hiss on the incoming hose of the pump. The pump keeps running and running and won't shut off. I replaced the 90" elbow that snaps to the pump and hose clamps to the input water line hose. This fixed the problem, yes fixed it, but it seems only temporarily. The hiss is back. What is going on here? How could the same part be bad after only 2-3 camping trips under my belt? I have inspected the incoming and outgoing hoses and no obvious tears or leaks were noted. Does the pump need to be replaced?1.8KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Heartland travel trailers
Interesting thread. I recently discovered a leak thru butyl tape around a window in which the water ran thru the wall of the trailer, exiting at the bottom of the trailer thru the black mesh skirt. The only damage was to the wood stick frames in the wall. But this made me wonder if a leak test could have caught such a leak. Has anyone have an experience where a leak test actually caught a leak thru a wall like this?348Views0likes0CommentsRe: home brew in our tt
I'm a homebrewer myself. Disconnect or shut off your CO2 supply to the keg. The shaking from road travel would likely over-carb your beer. Beyond that some of the sediment at the bottom of the keg might get shaken back into the beer, but that's not a problem. Let me know how that works, I've thought about doing the same.100Views0likes0Comments
