Furnace Vents Clogged
Greetings everyone! I have a 30ft HR Alumascape with a Atwood gas ducted furnace. When I tested it today I noticed a little problem, all of my forward heating vents don't seem to be functioning well. The three vents in the main living area of the coach seem to function just fine but all vents beyond that (upstairs) seem to be non functional. I took at look at the actual unit under my stove and it looks clean no dust buildup and the same from the outside access panel. Just curious if anyone has experienced the same problem and what a good starting place is for troubleshooting? Thanks for all the help and stay warm!1.4KViews0likes4CommentsBlack water leak or....
Hi all, My wife and I went out to drain our BW tank this morning and as we usually do we turned the flush on first then reached down to open the tank. We noticed a good stream of water coming out near the right side of the valve. The water was clear and was coming out of a area that was bowing out from the frame of the coach. We checked our cargo area and it was bone dry so it has to be coming from underneath it I assume. We started the process again and the leak appeared to have stopped but we still have the bowing underneath. Can anyone tell me what the bowing is? Or and ideas on why the water may have come out? The tank was pretty full so could it have overflowed when we started flushing it before we opened the valve? Thanks for all the help!1.4KViews0likes7CommentsToilet/black water gurgling
hey folks, my wife and I live in our fifth wheel full time and we are noticing a problem. We typically dump our black water once a week on the same day, we've noticed recently towards the end of the week probably around day five or six whenever we flush the toilet we hear a gurgling sound. It sounds like it's directly under the toilet possibly reverberating up from the vent pipe which goes directly behind the toilet. we've never heard this noise before and the tank isn't even full. just curious if there are any suggestions and easy fixes for this, but mostly I just want to know what the heck it is! thanks for all the info!2.5KViews0likes6CommentsMemorex radio not functioning
I have a Memorex radio installed in my entertainment center and I just noticed today it's not working. The time shows fine but when I hit the power button nothing. Just wondering if there's an easy solution to the problem. Thanks for all your help!867Views0likes2Commentsmounting a safe
I've decided recently that I want to try to mount a safe in my rig. I've been scouting a location for quite some time now and still haven't been able to come up with anything solid. I would like to bolt it or secure it somewhere, I'm not really crazy about going to the floor but I'm having trouble finding the location. Just curious if anyone else has done this and what their suggestions were. Thanks a lot and any input is appreciated4.1KViews0likes20CommentsRe: not so fantastic vent
okay that was pretty simple! I was able to open it but now the problem I'm having is the main fan doesn't work. Even with a handle pull down the vent open as soon as I turn the power on the motor behind the handle starts running but not the main fan. I tried changing the direction of the fan first then turning it on and still nothing. But whenever I turn the power on the motor behind the handle is still going.155Views0likes0Commentsnot so fantastic vent
hi everyone! Today I decided to tinker around with my fantastic fan installed in my bedroom. For some reason I was unable to open it the handle was jammed. I removed the black twist handle and then the two screws on either side of it assuming I would see a gear that was stuck. instead it's actually attached to a motor and the twisting handles inoperable. Using a pair of needle nose pliers I was able to figure out that the gear to open the fan is fine. However as soon as I turn power on to the vent the motor forces the event to be returned closed. when I manually open event with a pair of needle nose pliers the main fan will also not turn on. I check the fuse its a four amp just as required and its in good condition. I'm really stumped! Can someone recommend either a good website or give me some helpful information so that I can at least open and run this? Thanks a lot everyone!5.3KViews0likes16Comments
