Water Hookup

So we had out first water catastrophe. Had just hooked up and wife went to change in the master bedroom area. She sleeps on the side next to the water hookups. Stepped onto the carpet next to the bed and her foot was soaked! Long of it was the at two 90deg elbows off the main water inlet were leaking in the weirdest spot and in a matter of minutes had soaked nearly the entire bedroom floor. It was all hidden under the half box piece built to cover the backside of the water inputs and water pump.

Upon further investigation i found all the joints to be loose and not a single one had teflon tape or plumbers paste on them. Quick trip to HD and I was back up for the trip. Now have to make permanent repairs.

What I learned...take off the boxed cover and check all your water connections, realized that you can see through the wall at the water valve location ( requires great stuff sealing), floor is open to elements under the trailer requiring sealing as well.

Hope that helps someone in the future. Please fire away any questions.
