Re: Dometic Brisk Air air conditioner
Thank you to all who responded with actual help. We appreciate it. Yes, a/c is a Brisk II, we do have the model #s, but will identify the thermostat. Sadly, we can't plug our unit in somewhere else as we live in a campground, each having our own 50 amp electric post. Also can't move the Bungelow park model. To Doug: the unit will cool on hi/cool or low/cool. But because the fan is running, it takes a minute to realize that the compressor has shut down, blowing warmer air, and we can't tell if the compressor is humming because of the fan noise. One thermostat is in the unducted hallway across from a picture window. Brilliant planning on the trailer's manufacturer's part. We've been keeping that shade down. The bedroom thermostat is located across the room from the a/c. Will try all suggestions including the digital 120 voltage reading. Thank you all again.459Views0likes0CommentsDometic Brisk Air air conditioner
First off, my apologies for posting in the wrong place. Here's my post again. Our Dometic Brisk Air air conditioners (13500 just like the one pictured by RobWNY 7/18 along with the thermostat and the other 15000 with the same type of thermostat) turn on and off sporadically & have been doing such for 2 months. These are in our 2018 Jayco Bungelow. Our repair person has called Dometic numerous times and gets a different answer every time. I've even tried calling them and after going through all the details have been told I can't speak with a tech because I don't have an account with them. Fan will shut off for a few seconds, something hums loudly, then fan turns back on. Fan will go from "low" to "low", then "high", then "high", then "high", then "low", etc. This happens no matter what the outdoor temp is. In fact, the 15000 did it one night when the outdoor temp was lower than the indoor by a couple of degrees. I timed the 13500 one night for an hour while in bed. It shut down for approx. 45 seconds, hummed, then turned back on for 2 minutes then repeated. 15000 would do the same thing. Now both are turning off and on in a much shorter time span...1 min. on, 5 seconds off, hum, repeat. We had the fan set on "auto". Thermostat for the 15000 has been changed out...no difference. 13500 has a new electric component box inside...no difference. We're a little edgy sleeping at night and also don't want to go away during the day for a few hours leaving the dog in the unit for fear of a fire. Any suggestions will be deeply appreciated. Thank you all in advance. And I'm going to add... each and every one of you was a rookie at posting at one point in time and I thank those who have offered their sincere help.1.3KViews0likes10CommentsRe: Tires for Jayco 20' White Hawk

The info we need is in our unit at the repair shop. They're now closed for the holiday so we'll have to wait 'til Friday. Shop is not dealing with the tires. Thank you for the head's up. Didn't know there was more to it than ply, size, and "made for trailing" (not for a car).489Views0likes0CommentsSealing between epdm roof and metal hold-down rail
Any suggestions on what type/kind of sealant to use to stop the rain water from coming behind the roof "hold-down" rail and running down the outside of our unit into our screen room? Have to be careful because the epdm roof is "under" the metal "hold-down" rail and that joining is where it needs to be caulked. Need something that adheres to both epdm and metal. Suggestions on what not to use would certainly be welcome also. Thank you in advance, for any constructive help.1.6KViews0likes6Comments
