    Mice!!

    You mentioned you used mothballs. I put mothballs on the feet of all the jacks and around the tires or anything that touches the ground. That keeps them out. I have not had any problem since. I do not bait them. Why invite them in !

    Why do I need a inverter/converter?

    I have only been getting a day or two on my 2 - 12v. batteries. So I just brought home 2 new Costco 6 volt batteries for my 2012 Sundance 3200RE 5er and started reading all these treads on Inverters/converters and 6v. batteries. Now my head is swimming! What does the inverter and converter do...

    Dometic DM2852 refrigerator runs all the time

    I posted about this issue last year on this DM2852 refer. Not only is mine noisy, but I think it is running down the batteries much faster when I am boondocking. There is no way to turn the fan(s) off, unless you turn the refer switch off. Then like RB75 says, it still runs for a while longer...

    DM2852 refer fan seems to be on constantly.

    Yes it is strange. I did call Dometic. After waiting for 8 calls ahead of me, I got a woman that read the same manual as I was reading. She said she was not a tech so could not tell me more...then she said hold on a minute and I was cut off. I am going to call their sevice center tomorrow. I am...

    DM2852 refer fan seems to be on constantly.

    The dometic owners manual says there is a Climat control switch under the refer on/off-auto/gas controls. There is nothing. Does anyone Have this refer DM2852 that has a Clmate Control switch that would take a picture of the location and post it here? I am baffled! Thanks.

    New showerhead/water saver????

    Many have posted about putting different showerheads on rather than the OEM one. I have been relutant in that I thought the OEM showerhead had little pressure and used less water so that you did not drain your fresh water tank when boondocking. Am I wrong in thinking that???

    Wet floor near shower from full holding tank - why?

    Pulltab, Guess what, I got the leaky hose fixed so that there was no drip and the next day the carpet was wet again even with the docking station dry. I opened the compartment to the water heater to check it even though I have done it a half a dozen times to find it dry. You're right, this...

    Lino in the kitchen floor

    I had this problem in my home 10 years ago.. It was a screw coming out of the flooring under the vinyl. The installer just cut a small hole removed the screw and put glue in the hole, pushed it down, wiped the excess glue off and this is the first time since then I have even thought about it. zz

    Wet floor near shower from full holding tank - why?

    jmgratz, I ruled the full holding tank cause out because it happened again 3-4 times with the tank empty. That's not to say that may still be another problem.

    Wet floor near shower from full holding tank - why?

    Pulltab, We have been showering in there for over 2 weeks, with no leaks. So I would think that it must have something to do with an over full holding tank. But I will check that out. Bill , I had only a elec and water only hookup.
