    Recommended Caulking for Roof

    Thanks very much for the information. When I replace the skylight, I will put the putty tape between and then seal the top. I looked into the EternaBond stuff but it is really expensive.

    Electrical Overheating

    WDK450, That was the best answer I have ever received. I actually understand what you said. Do you think it would be a good idea to replace the end with a new one? That way I can secure the wiring inside the plug myself and routinely inspect it. Thanks again for your explanation. Chris

    Electrical Overheating

    I have been keeping a eye on this and the factory power plug is starting to get a fried look on the face where the prongs come out. The prongs aren't looking to good themselves. I noticed that the factory cord gets really hot to the touch when I have the AC running on high an extended amount...

    Recommended Caulking for Roof

    I think there is a misunderstanding. I think you are referring to the vent cap. I am referring to the skylight over the shower that does not open. But thanks for the recommendation on the sealant. I read somewhere that it is recommended you put putty tape down between the plastic skylight...

    Decals Are Ripping and Pealing Off

    Well, the dealer I bought my camper from no longer sells Heartland....shocker since they screwed me over so bad. The only dealer near me is Bluegrass RV in Lexington. They did warranty work on my RV after I bought it but left off the gold decal from the door....never have had it put back on.

    Recommended Caulking for Roof

    I found a crack in the skylight of my bathroom. I ordered a new skylight directly from Heartland and I need some recommendation for replacing it. Can anyone provide me with a recommendation on caulk and procedures for switching out the skylight? Any information will be helpful. Thanks, Chris

    Decals Are Ripping and Pealing Off

    I have a 2010 29RKS that I am quite proud of. I had noticed and made Heartland aware of the decals when I bought it. The decals appeared they were not put on properly. They just stuck on the high flat surfaces of the siding instead of being pushed down into the groves. This has resulted in...

    Electrical Overheating

    I have had my North Country for two years now. It has the upgraded AC unit in it. I have noticed that if it is really hot outside (as it has been in Kentucky all summer) and I have to run the AC a lot, the electrical panel is getting MEGA hot. It has even tripped all the breakers for the...

    Electric Tongue Jack

    I was actually able to email Chris Stender (thanks to Jim Beletti), brand manager, at the factory about the proper sizing for the tongue jack. He advised that the hole is in fact 2 1/4 inches. I hope this helps others out looking to upgrade to an electric tongue jack.

    2010 nc 29rks ls +

    I have a 2010 NC 29rks ls but mine was manufactured in late 2008 (according to the frame sticker). Mine has the short wardrobes that are useless!! I wish I would have waited a while longer to buy mine and get the full wardrobes. We LOVE our Heartland very much. Hope you enjoy and thanks for...

    Electric Tongue Jack

    I am guessing that 3500lbs should do it. What do you all think? I measured the hole and it is 2 inches....I was really hoping for 2 1/4 inches so I could buy the one with the extension foot on it.

    Electric Tongue Jack

    I have been researching buying an electric tongue jack to replace my manual jack on my North Country 29RKS. I have found out that there are two different tongue jack diameters, a 2 1/4 inch and 2 inch. Can anyone advise me on the correct size my North Country will take. Thank You.

    Electric Tongue Jacks

    Moderator, could you please move my post to the appropriate area....probably electrical. I mistakenly posted in the "prospective owners" forum. Thanks.

    Electric Tongue Jacks

    I have been looking real hard at buying a tongue jack. The ole back has had two surgeries and the crankin on the manual jack has got to come to an end. I have been looking at many remans on Ebay. Came across the Odyssey 3000lbs electric jack that is a reman but with a 3 year warranty. My...

    NC Tongue Level Height?

    I have researched this a lot for myself because of when I bought mine, the NC was much higher. I have a 2500 GMC Yukon which I think is about the same height as yours. I was told by numerous "experts" it's better to be a little low at the hitch than too high. I have ran my both ways and and...

    Purchasing Issues

    I bought mine out of state to save a few thousand dollars. The big box dealer I bought mine from didn't do any prep work on the camper at all. I brought it home and parked it through the winter. Got it out to use first of April and had a leak in the cargo hold door. Took it to a local dealer...

    EQ hitch for North Country

    I have the Reese WD with 1200lbs bars. I added the Reese HP dual cam sway control because the sway was incredible with mine. It's easy to set up yourself if you do a little reading and research about it.

    Main Breaker Tripping

    Thanks for the info. I didn't know if things were messed up or not. We never had this problem with our 07 Keystone Outback so I just thought there was a problem. We just turned off the AC until we were finished with the microwave.

    Main Breaker Tripping

    I recently had my North Country out for the weekend....a VERY hot and muggy one at that. Anyway, I had the 15K AC on full blast all day just to keep the camper tolerable. I attempted to fix dinner using the microwave and it kept tripping the main and ac circuit breaker. It did this numerous...

    Shower leaking

    I have a 2010 North Country that has leaked from day one. I have taken it back for warranty and they say they have fixed it but to no avail. I have no problem caulking it but I can't get in the edge that's next to the cabinet.

    NC 29RKS Questions

    We own a 2010 NC LS 29RKS and we have found the shirt closets to be useless really. They are way too small. They do not open for storage, the night stand tops that is. I don't think the table and chairs is an option in this one. The table is one that you can take and move anywhere and use...

    Frame Size for North Country's

    I am going to buy the Reese HP Dual Cam sway control to add to my Reese WD hitch. I have a 2010 North Country and was wondering if anyone had the thickness of the box frame handy? I would go measure mine but it's in the shop having a bunch of warranty work done on it. I know the HP Dual Cam...

    Maiden Voyage

    Well, just got back from my trip to My Old Kentucky Home. The days were very nice but the evenings full of rain, especially last night. I never could get the shower to stop leaking. It appears that when someone is in the shower, the base moves while the surround stays put. I put a lot of...

    Maiden Voyage

    I pulled it out and found out it was a double. Which is what I thought it was. Ok guys, here is a bad start for you. We were cleaning the camper and walking in sock feet when our feet hit the front bedroom. Our socks got soaked!! The carpet was completely soaked and I was worried. Looked...

    Well, it's that time a of year. Time to take my brand new North Country out for a week of spring break fun. We just bought her in January so I'm hoping everything works right and we have no problems. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure what the size of the mattress is on the sleeper sofa...

    Yukon Denali Towing North Trail 31QBS?

    I own a 2001 Yukon XL 2500 with the 8.1l V8 and 4.10 gears. The actual trailer towing weight is 12,000 lbs according to my books and receiver. The newer ones have a different design receiver, are only rated for like 10500 lbs. plus they did away with the 8.1 and only offer the 6.0

    Rear Kitchen Questions

    This isn't my first, it's my second. I had a Keystone Outback 29RSDS that I never had a problem with doors/drawers coming open with. It's just going to take some getting used to I guess. I'm going to adjust them and then move some things. I'm going to steal some of my daughters ponytail...

    Rear Kitchen Questions

    I just bought a 29RKS and did a lot of research on rear kitchens before I bought one. Almost everyone I had spoke to in other forums never had any problems with the cabinet doors coming open in transit and their stuff falling out. In just the short trip from my home to the storage lot, on nice...

    Business question?

    I just bought a North Country and can tell you that the dealers I dealt with said they can't keep them in stock. They all said Heartland is the fastest and best made RV on the market. I was real close to buying a Jayco but Heartland's personal touch convinced me. As long as they treat the...

    Financing Nightmare

    Already have one tripped planned the weekend of June 13th at Big Bone Lick State Park. Go there every father's day weekend to take my son, brother-in-law, and his son to the Nationwide NASCAR race at Kentucky Speedway. Anyone else have plans to attend the race there?

    Hitch Height for 29RKS

    I took the advice and called Heartland Customer Service. First off, it was really nice to speak to a real person upfront. Matt answered my question and it is 21 1/2 inches to the bottom of the ball socket. I measured mine and it was set at 24 inches so that was probably contributing to my...

    WD Hitch Help

    I agree with the tire issue. I have new Toyo E rated tires. I'm beginning to wonder if my autoride shock system in my yukon is having something to do with it. They set everything up with the truck turned off instead of it running. I might need to lower the ball a notch so the camper is...

    WD Hitch Help

    I presently have a regular Reese WD hitch with 1200lb bars and a 1400 tongue weight. I just picked up my new North Country 29RKS and I wasn't impressed with my towing. I feel I have plenty of truck for the job. When the hitch was hooked up, the dealer had to raise the ball to the proper...

    Financing Nightmare

    Picked up the new 29RKS today. Man, what a handful!!! The wind was bad here and the pull back from Cinci was white knuckled. Got it home, stocked, and to the storage lot until April.
