    AC breaker pops after extended period

    Thanks. I think mine is similar. My "main" and "a/c" are on a single breaker. I managed to get through the summer by replacing the breaker, installing a meter to monitor park voltage and show my amp draw. I also started running my hot water tank on the gas rather than electric. By doing this and...

    AC breaker pops after extended period

    I have a 2013 32 foot Prowler, 30 amp main breaker, 20 amp ac breaker. With our recent hot weather the ac has been running non stop. I have the thermostat set at 70 to 72 and nothing else in the trailer is running other than the fridge and a small fan. In the afternoon when the heat is strongest...

    Proverbial "Soft Floor" issue

    I have a 2013 Heartland Prowler 32 BHS sitting in a leased site since the day it was purchased. When I opened it up for the season I found the floor is soft along the wall between the bed and wall. and it extends into the storage compartment at the front of the trailer. The trailer has a storage...

    Tank odors

    Not sure if you solved your problem but I have a 2013 Heartland Prowler 32 foo bunkhouse and just went threw the same problem. I had an air admittance valve under the kitchen sink and under the bathroom sink that I replaced. Then went onto the roof where I had 3 vent stacks. I removed the...

    Air Admittance Valves

    So I went to the trailer Friday after supper and at first, no smell, Turned on the a/c and went about doing other things. Maybe 3 hours later the trailer started to smell so I started looking for the aav's. There is one under the kitchen sink and there was no smell there. Found the second valve...

    Air Admittance Valves

    Thanks folks. Heading out today to look. If there is one on each sink would the shower/tub not have one as well?

    Air Admittance Valves

    I have a 2013 Heartland Prowler 32P BHS and am getting a sewer smell in the trailer when running my a/c. It has been hot and humid here lately so we have been running the a/c on high. Reading on the internet leads me to suspect the valve/s needs cleaning or replacing. Does anyone know how many...

    A/C blowing 20 amp breaker

    UPDATE - Everyone loves an update... So my son is at the trailer Friday night, has the ac running and a few other things, and the power goes out, but none of the trailer breakers have tripped. We have tools and multimeters out there so he checks for power at the pedestal and it first said...

    A/C blowing 20 amp breaker

    Thanks so much for the info. Went out to the trailer today and before opening it I checked the park voltage at our pedestal. It was 118.5 volts. I then plugged our power cable back in and checked it for a voltage drop and there was none. Went into the trailer and checked an outlet and it was at...

    A/C blowing 20 amp breaker

    Sorry folks. I have to go test again. The wiring diagram on the unit was misleading. After looking up the model number I found the proper test procedure for this unit, a Coleman Airxcel model. I need to take my reading from the black wire at the compressor after it has been running on high cool...

I cleaned the unit, which wasn't very dirty at all. checked the campground voltage coming into the trailer and it was at 116v, later dropped to 107v around 5pm. I ran the a/c for about 3 hours before we had to come...

    A/C blowing 20 amp breaker

    Went out to the trailer park today to check on our trailer. I turned on the a/c and it ran for less than a minute and popped the breaker. I tried resetting it 3 or times with the same result. It was above 90F, (34C), outside today so not sure if the heat had anything to do with this because the...

    Resealing roof??

    Thanks again folks. That Henry 887 Tropicool is not available at Home Depot in Canada so once I determine my roofing material I have I will dig into it further. I can't find Dicor products here either but I see both Henry and Dicor available through Amazon.

    Resealing roof??

    Thanks folks. I guess my first step will be to determine what type of material my roof is made of, TPO or that other stuff.
