| Cable Operated Waste Valves | 4 Relevance | 9 years ago | Jim | Utilities: Plumbing, Electrical and Propane | |
| Maybe. The valve is beneath a step behind the rear bulkhead wall in the Basement. (The converter is mounted on the step.) Difficult to access the area because of a maze of water piping, drain line and wires. If I could get access it would be somewhat of a guesstimate as to where to make the cutout but it's an idea worth investigating. I have a Fein plunge saw that could make the cuts without endangering what is beneath. Unfortunately no way to get my head up into the area of the valve from below to see what may be interfering. I can feel part of the valve wi ... | |||||

| I wasn't quite as productive 🙁 Added a hose to the right side propane tank for the Coleman grille. No more trips out for little throwaways !! We're in the last 4 weeks of loading and prepping to go fulltime. Finished up loading and arranging the Basement. Pictures attached. | |||||

| There's a check valve at the pump that's either worn out or has sediment holding it open. The pump is behind the Basement wall just below the onboard filter door. | |||||

| Thanks very much for the quick replies. Yes, the instructions say to connect the antenna directly to the receiver and then to the TV. But then I have the issue of getting the coax into the RV. Since the receptacles in the Basement (large storage compartment) say "Satellite", I thought it would be easy to connect the antenna there hoping that would go directly to the TV - or in this case to the receiver, then to the TV. | |||||

| ... You'll have a variety of ways to connect it to the RV. Use the SAT IN port in the utility closet outside. Here is the 2014 GK routing for our unit. There is a RL print here on the blog somewhere. And it may be in the Technical references. Hope this helps but everyone seems to have variations when it comes to antenna connections. It would be sooooooo simple if Redwood built a manifold in the Basement and labeled all wires... You'll get aggravated looking for the splitters. They are located behind light fixtures and walls. If you need help or additiona ... | |||||

| Firstly, welcome to the Redwood Owner's Group forum, as I noted this is your first post. In the convenience centre, on the driver's side, you should have 2 satellite inputs and 1 for park cable. On the other side of the coach in the Basement you probably have outlets for satellite and cable. Connect your portable dish to the Sat 1 & Sat 2 inputs in the convenience centre. On the inside of our coach 36FL the satellite cables are orange and have numbered tags on them. Might need a signal generator to trace which cable is which. Don't have any experience wit ... | |||||
| Need Water Filter suggestions | 4 Relevance | 9 years ago | Danny_and_Linda | The RV Lifestyle | |
| We have the charcoal filter from CHIEFWATERS.com located in Florida. easy to use lifetime warranty, just needs to be back flushed every 30 days. As others have stated we use the campo throwaway filter, with a commercial grade pressure regulator, took out the Basement filter. Cost is high but never need another one, think $600.00 USA. WOW! For $600 I can buy filter cartridges for about 10 years for for both filters, but glad it works for you. | |||||

| we also have a 31 sl. Because the galley and shower tank filled up so fast and the bath tank only held the bath sink ( no W\D) I simply rerouted the shower to go into the bath tank. Easy plumbing fix in the Basement. Now we have a galley tank and a bath tank, works well | |||||

| I'll post in the technical library. Your furnace at home is like mine back home, it's a condensing natural gas furnace at about 93% efficiency where the water vapour condenses to get additional BTUs out of the combustion gases. I'll send and E-mail to see if they have an efficiency value on our RV furnace (if they will admit to the low efficiency!). The other thing I was thinking about is that the furnace efficiency doesn't tell the whole story, there are losses between the furnace and the space (for example in the RV Basement) | |||||

| ... skirting and have added clear plastic to the windows. We use a the furnace primarily to heat the Basement, hoping to prevent freezing. We have an electric heater in living room and in the bedroom. We put a mat in the kitchen to keep the floor warm. Before the mat, the floor would get so cold I could hardly stand to be in the kitchen area. The insulation in the bottom is not good. On those below freezing days, it is cooler inside--but not cold. We could crank up the furnace and probably keep it warm. I would rather use a blanket than my wallet. ... | |||||
| AirHead Composting Toilet | 4 Relevance | 9 years ago | Anonymous | Owner Modifications | |
| Just finished installing an AirHead Composting toilet in my new RW3401RL. I was pleased with the ease of accessibility through the Basement storage for running and wiring the ventilation. Of course with any aftermarket installation I think I did my best with leaving a minimal impact on the coach, for reasons of future resale. There are many reasons for using a composting toilet, for my wife and I over 90% of the time we are boondocking. Having a conventional RV toilet we would need to empty the black tank on a biweekly basis than have to drive our waste to a ... | |||||

| ... smaller fresh water tanks could be a problem for Boondockers, but for me I do not boondock, and have full hookups except for some overnight stays every now and then. For us, propane vs. electric heating depends on the campground we are at. Where electricity is included in the daily campsite fee we maximize the electric usage (remembering to provide some propane heating when it's below freezing to keep the water lines in the Basement warm). We are currently in a park that charges for electricity use on top of the monthly campsite fee, in these parks I do ... | |||||

| ... so that you can know what to expect. For others that have the 38GK, feel free to add your comments. There is only 1 WHITE wire I have not been able to find. It is on the roof for the satellite system. One is connected. One is not. I cannot find the other end of this jack. Concerning splitters, the person that hid the splitters behind light fixtures should be terminated. For 1' (12") more wire, the splitters could have been placed in the cabinet in an easy to find and change-out location. How stupid can this be. Of course, a professional would have run al ... | |||||

Lol Vaughan - We had similar experiences during a couple of chilly evenings while crossing the Prairies. When the outside temps dropped below 40 F the furnace cut in to keep the inside and Basement warm. Most of the time I remember to set the thermostat within 5 degrees before turning on the heat pump, but still occasionally forget and curse as the furnace cuts in. The system actually works rather well, especially when the fireplace is used d ... | |||||
