We didn’t. We just put cloth covers on the chairs and we are currently trying to sell the fifth wheel.

I put my 2016 big horn 3160 on a consignment lot here in Tacoma WA last month for sale. Concerned about winter damage if we are not using the rig at all and they are not doing anything in terms of humidifiers, etc to prevent moisture and warpage inside the 5th wheel. I drained all water out of...

Thx for the tip. Do I put the lube in from the opening at the top of the furnace fan?

Any suggestions ? My furn fan sounds rickety when starting up and gets quiet as it starts pushing propane and heat. Is that normal ? I assume not Should I spray the fan bushing with Teflon or lithium?

I called Progressive today and they said they can't insure my 5th wheel rig in Tacoma WA that I live in full time on wheels vs on a platform... not sure why they said no... I own it and it is on my son's property on his driveway. 2017 big horn 3160. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!

Yep, my holding tanks is vented. Thx for the tip!

I will try more water at each time we use toilet. I have black valve closed until tank 2/4 full. Then I attach macerator and pump black water into tank.

thanks for the tips!!!! probably good to drain every two weeks too!!!! will use more water!!!

We're living in the 5tth wheel... I keep having 2 issues: 1. the black water is too thick like oatmeal consistency - tried Unique and Happy Camper. Happy Camper is better at keeping the smell down. Both are not breaking down the black water.. I drain about every 3 weeks into a 300 gallon...

Brass. Hope it continues to work

I added a check valve from Amazon in front of the water pump and that has solved the fresh water overflowing from the city water ! Thx everyone for the tip!

sorry for the confusion... I wasn't getting any water at all filling up the clear glass 3" pipe that is before my valterra valve.....

I flushed the black water tank with my macerator. Then poured water through back flush valve but didn’t get more black water out of the 3” pipe. I wouldn’t think I need to add 30-40 gallons. Any tips ? Thx
