    Aftermarket Electrical Switches

    For those who like to add "stuff" to their truck I found this company that markets switches. http://otrattw.com/ I ordered six switches last Monday and received them yesterday-through USPS no less. Good service. This company has some really good looking, well built switches. I like the plain...

    Switching from Heat Pump to Furnace and back again.

    We have a Dometic Penguin heat pump on our unit that will automatic switch to the furnace. According to the Dometic manual this switch is made when the temp of the outside air hits 30 degrees. According to Dometic's website the change occurs at 40 degrees. Either way, ours switches to furnace at...

    Another HL Customer Service 'Attaboy'

    HL Customer Service 'Attaboy' In a couple of other threads, HL has been taking it on the chin (some of it deserved) so I thought I would post a positive experience. I was rewiring the electrical cabinet in the trailer and I broke the double slide switch (dummy me ). Called Terry Hayes in...

    A Good Reminder of the Value of a Progressive EMS

    While camping this past weekend our main A/C shut down several times. Then we realized all the power was being shut off. I checked the display for the Progressive EMS and it showed 105-108 volts on one leg and 124 on the other. Went out and checked the pedestal and got the same readings. Sam...

    Very Good Service from TONY'S RV, Lexington South Carolina

    Our Norcold refrigerator stopped working on our last trip. Dale (mntnman) recommended Tony's RV in Lexington SC. Even though they were 73 miles from our house and we passed two other Norcold service centers to get there, the trip and extra miles were well worth it. The refrigerator repair...

    LifeLock or some other protection?

    Started being concerned with some of the places we go to use our cc. While Lifelock doesn't directly protect the card, once some one has the card number I would think it would be an easy thing for them to obtain the rest of the info including SSNs. Not being a crook, I am just guessing at that...

    Water manifold and basement remodel. (Long and lots of pictures)

    One of the things that I feel Heartland could do a little better job on is in the basement area behind the wall. There HAS been a huge improvement over the last couple of years in this area but I still thought it could be a little cleaner. Not so much for looks but for any service work that...

    Water filter and regulator install

    I have never been happy with the pressure in any trailer I had-but then I had always used a cheap 10 dollar pressure regulator. I also did not like the little blue in-line water filter even though I have this mental block about not drinking the water from a campground. I did not need an...

    Dodge Owners- Where is the 4wd relay

    For those of you running a a 2010 or newer Dodge, where is the 4wd relay for engaging the front hubs? On our Ford, I had installed a switch that would hold the relay open for the front hubs and not let them engage. Would like to do the same thing with our dodge if possible.

    Draining the coroplast

    While working on another project under the trailer, I saw the coroplast sagging more than usual. I cut two little holes at the lowest points and here is what happened.

    First-this is not a bashing thread on HL or any other manufacturer so please don't. Quality is a term used alot but without definition. We all have our own idea as to what quality. Does it mean a higher priced unit? Higher priced individual components? Dependability? More bells and whistles...
