    Installing a two zone Dometic thermostat in a 2014 Bighorn, Model 3570 RS

    The two zone thermostat in an RV allows for control over two AC's from one thermostat. Zone 1 would be the main AC in the living area and zone 2 would be for the one in the bedroom. I only have one AC, so I don't know if there is a separate temperature sensor for the bedroom or not. I just...

    Installing a two zone Dometic thermostat in a 2014 Bighorn, Model 3570 RS

    In my previous 2008 Bighorn I installed a programmable thermostat made by Lenox. When I traded last year for a new 2014 Bighorn I found that the electrical connection was totally different. Instead of having a "Thermostat Cable" with 7 wires in it, only 3 wires feed into the new Dometic one...

    Water Pressure getting lower and lower over time.

    Hi Ray, I think the answer to your question is yes, but there might be some legal/health issues if you did. The engineer in me wants to explain in a little more detail what happened to me. The two systems on our BH are the same as yours. They are separate also. However, I knew that turning...

    Water Pressure getting lower and lower over time.

    Thanks for all the reply’s. When I got up this morning, the water pressure was even worse. So after several appointments were out of the way, I got into trying to determine the cause. I am not using a regulator in this park, because the pressure, measured by a standard water pressure gauge...

    Water Pressure getting lower and lower over time.

    We have a 2008 Bighorn, model 3055RL. Due to some surgery on both my wife and myself, we have been treading water since last Nov 14th here in the Tampa Bay area. Over the past few months, we have noticed a significant drop in our water pressure. The inlet hose pressure is 40psi, but coming...

    Water Problem around Rear Window

    Thanks for the comment. I got a really good chuckle out of that thought! I didn't even think about the rubber mallot being in the picture. I used the rubber mallot to tap the plastic putty knife instead of having to put a lot effort into pushing the putty knife along. Worked great! Thanks...

    Replacement parts

    I ordered a faucet replacement for my shower about two weeks ago and it was mailed the next day. Unfortunately, someone put the label on the wrong box, and so "my" part was wrong. I called back and explained what happened, HL reshipped the correct part by 2nd day air and again it was shipped the...

    Water Problem around Rear Window

    It seemed to tighten up on the outside as I put the screws in on the inside. We decided not to add anything to the rubber seal - just made sure the surface was good and smooth and clean. The bottom was only caulked around the radius of each corner. The horizontal part between the two corners...

    Water Problem around Rear Window

    Hi Bob & Patty, I think I ended up pretty much the same as you. I got the plastic putty knife at Home Depot for 97 cents. I started at the bottom and was surprised at how easy the knife went up the window sides. In about 10 min, the window was ready to come out. One problem, I couldn't climb...

    Water Problem around Rear Window

    Hi John, The only screws I found were the ones that hold the "trim/flange" on the inside to the window itself. I finally got through to the factory customer service and was told that it is the stickiness of the putty that is holding the window in place. In order to remove the window from the...

    Leaking Shower Faucet

    I had surgery coming up earlier so I did nothing. Then about two weeks ago, all of a sudden water was pouring out from under my shower stall on the floor. Apparently the plastic housing of the faucet had cracked and started allowing water to run down the back side of the shower stall. I...

    Water Problem around Rear Window

    I have been on hold for several weeks. I had an ankle replacement on my right ankle. I am still on crutches until June 20th, but I think I have found the source of the problem. About two weeks ago I had a neighbor tape clear plastic over my window. The plastic went completely over the frame...

    Water Problem around Rear Window

    Thank you so much. I always wondered how they were attached. I think before I start taking the window apart, I will tape a piece of plastic over the window and then put the hose to it. If the water is getting in from around the window, then there should not be any water on the inside. If...

    Water Problem around Rear Window

    Thanks Bob, I noticed that all of the screws are on the inside. Makes me wonder if there is some kind of seal inside there. It also looks as if the valance may have to be removed. The screws look like they may be hard to get to with the valance on. Do you know anything about how the valance...
