    Hot water heater flush

    How exactly do you flush an RV hot water heater? Are you blowing water up the drain and possible depositing debris elsewhere in the system??? I have a 2011 189 FBS. Thank you.

    So, I have read a lot of articles on fixing these hot water heaters over the last few months with no luck. I purchased the unit 7-8 months ago, and have been full time now for 6 months. The water heats fine on gas. The electric side has not worked since I bought it. I have replaced the...

    2006 Hawk Hot Water Heater Not Lighting

    Hello WTW Folks, I am unable to get the pilot to light on the hot water heater in my 2006 Hawk. The pilot light will eventually ignite if I use a butane lighter but take a long time. The main burner will then also ignite. But after a couple minutes both go off. The water is heated only to warm...

    No hot water in taps

    We have 2012 Thor Tuscany. We have the unit hooked up to City water and the water pressure is working fine. There is hot water in the water heater but no hot water comes out of the taps or shower. Seems like the hot water heater is being bypassed. Any ideas?

    Improved hot water heater bypass

    I'm thinking of changing my one-valve hot water heater bypass to a two-valve system. The single valve works fine for bypassing the inlet to prevent antifreeze from entering.

    Hot water heater

    We picked up our Montana HC 331RLS yesterday and spent night in campground to see if any issues came up and there were.

    Ok so there was a loud buzzing sound coming from my anti-siphon valve under the sink. Easy enough repair with a little CPVC and a couple of fittings. Now there is a similar buzzing sound coming from the hot water heater only, no noise when running cold water. I thought there could be a second...
