I've done this same thing many times. These pumps are actually pretty tough. Did you open a valve somewhere when you tried running your pump? You need somewhere for the air to go for the pump to...

3 percent slope in an 8 foot wide trailer would be a difference of 0.24 feet or about 3 inches (2.88" to be exact). Side to side.

Rise/Run X 100 = Percent Slope

They need to be fairly level. The less level, the less they work. I can't run mine at my house because of the slope of the street/driveway. I tried once and failed. Not only did it not work, when I...

You need a voltage meter. It makes finding these electrical problems so much easier. They are relatively cheap and easy to find. I was surprised at how much I used one when I finally broke down and...

For anyone following this thread wondering about the status of their anode, not all HW heaters have anodes. Don't be surprised if you can't find one. Check your owners manual or FAQ online at the...

Not sure if his cross flow/back flow theory holds water. At first it sounds great until you realize that we do indeed have a check valve in the hot water line at the outlet side of the hot water...

Seems more likely that the two breakers have been mismarked all along and you just haven't noticed. It wouldn't be the first thing in these RVs that they labeled backwards.

I'd try plugging the...

Both my inside and outside shower heads leak. Then I get the cold shot of water when I turn it back on. I still have the cheap ones that the camper came with. Someday I'll upgrade. I'm sure there's...

The bottom brass connector is not a check valve. I can't see the top one well enough to say if it is or not.

I would expect both brass connectors to be hot to the touch if the HW heater is on,...

Unless I'm reading the OP wrong, he has no flow out the hot water side when the HW heater is online. Not that there is cold water coming out, but there is no water flow at all. I also don't think he...
