2018 30RLS water heater access

Does anyone know the location of the access to the rear of water heater in a 2018 30 RLS 5th wheel?

Here's a link to a video of the model.




At the beginning there is a floorplan; at the 19:55 mark you can see the outdoor access to the hwh. It looks like from the floorplan the heater would be somewhere under/in either the linen storage in the bathroom or the bottom of the cabinets on the other side of the wall. You can look for a panel you could possibly unscrew. There also may be someone on the forum that has that model and say specifically where it is and how to get to it.

Thanks. It looks to be under linen cabinet in the bath but I don't see an access.

It likely won't look like an access door. It will be a section of wall panel that is held in place with screws - in general (I also am not familiar with this specific camper).

Is it not accessible from the pass through storage? On my 2019 there is a huge panel held in by 6 screws that I assumed gave me access to the furnace and water heater.

Do you mean the curved wall in the storage bay? I will check that when I replace my leaking outdoor shower faucet. Thanks.

I just looked on my trailer. Yes, behind the curved panel. There is a bunch of heater ducting in front of it, but it is fully accessible.

Thanks it all worked out

I checked this out. The furnace duct work detaches via a quick connect type system affording easy access to the water heater. Luckily, the installer put the circuit board on the right side of the water heater which is easily accessible. Thanks so much for the info. It was really easy once I knew where the access was. PS: The Keystone chat person had no clue where the access was. She told me to look under the linen shelves in the bathroom.

Good deal! I’m glad I know where it is now too. On my last trailer, the circuit board went out and my access was in the bunks. It’s nice that they made it easy for us.
