    Transfer switch

    To answer your question. The transfer switch only switches the power to the fridge, from shore power to inverter power

    Just installed my Centramatic balancers on my fifth wheel

    I've had them on my Bighorn for over 7 years. Installed after the first set of tires showed some strange wear. They immediately corrected the balance issue.

    Is the inverter near by? Maybe it's a aftermarket remote switch.

    How big should our new RV be!?

    We have a 35 ft 5th wheel, it's easy to handle, that we use as our "get out of Florida summer home". It's just the two us. We travel for 4 to 6 months, then it's back to sticks and bricks. Works for us

    Water weeping from hot water tank pressure valve.

    It could be as simple as a bad/corroded to valve. It happens. I change that first. But that just me.

    Google, " how to descale a RV water heater ". I've done this and you'd be surprised how much scale came out.

    The Trip!

    I always check the date codes before I let a dealer install. I'm now running Hercules 901 tires. Dealer had them in stock. Date codes were less than 6 months old.

    Soft, Sticky, Gooey Roof

    Dicor told me as long as the black membrane isn't ruptured you are still waterproof.

    Soft, Sticky, Gooey Roof

    No they primed the underlayment and applied the flex armor. It cost an additional $600 to remove and prep.

    Soft, Sticky, Gooey Roof

    Depends on the state of the roof. Mine was not able to be coated over it had to be removed.

    2018 BH270-dead outlet

    If it was caused by an overload it'd more likely be a tripped circuit breaker rather than a GFCI issue.

    Best AC Replacement?

    Mine was a problem with the motor start capacitor. Could be a blocked evaporator which only needs to be cleaned out. If the compressor works (makes cold air) I'd have a mobile tech (one who's been at it a while) check it out. Could save time and money. If not it's the price of a service call...
