    Furnace running non-stop

    Don't know what the problem is but am posting before the tech people solve the problem. Had the trailer (de-winterized) in the yard with the furnace set to come on at 58 because we had a few cold nights. Have a shore power connection but had it disconnected to avoid...

    Internet a must

    Don't know where to post this but I am sure someone will move it to the correct area. For business reasons I need to be able to get to the internet where ever I park the house. Verizon works well when I have a cell I can reach and wifi also is good when available. I do know I will then...

    Satalite Radio

    Want the ability to receive satalite radio. Don't want to talk with a dealer because I am not sure the info will be honest. What equipment do I need? What system is highly recommended (have no interest in the likes of Howard Stern but would like to listen to Rush when I want) ? Any input?

    Tires

    Through this forum I was advised to put metal valves stems on my tires if I was going to use pressure sensors. Did that. While there I noticed that they were putting 65psi in the trailer tires vs the 55psi that my dealer put in them. Their comment, "dealers don't sell tires". While there I was...

    Electric Jacks

    Has anyone replaced the manual jacks with electric ones on these trailers? I am happy with the electric one I put on the tongue.

    Pdi

    I am angry. I have owned this trailer for slightly over a month. We are in the first week of a three week trip. Last night I noticed that the battery level was decreasing even thought I knew we were connected to shore power. This morning it was in the red zone. I checked the battery...

    Brake Controller

    This is first trip I have made with a new Prodegy Brake Controller. Everything seemed to be normal until yesterday. For some reason the reading would range between what I think is normal (0.0) and .3, .4 all the way to 1.4 with no application of the brakes. When we stopped for the night I could...

    Downsizing, etc.

    Need some advice: 1. We are downsizing on the way to retiring. Our idea is to move into a rented appartment or condo in the area here while we travel in the trailer to find the area we want to retire to (probably the Carson City, Reno area of NV). We have a house full of life long accumulation...

    New Owner

    Just got back from our first trip in the new trailer. 5 days and 4 campgrounds all around New Mexico. All went well. Towed thru high winds part of the way and the stabalizing hitch worked well although it did get my attention at times. Found that I needed a space heater to augment the furnace by...

    Basement freezing while using space heater?

    Got a space heater today because it seemed that the furnace was coming on for 1 minute or so every 25 minutes to keep the inside temp at 62. The heater is working so well that the furnace has not come on yet tonight. BUT what about my the underbelly plumbing? Our living space is warm but am I...

    Why are areas that must be repeatedly accessed screwed down (wood to wood)?

    Why are areas that must be repeatedly accessed screwed down (wood to wood)? This means that eventually the screw holes degrade. Why not put simple latches that can be flipped to open the area. The specific area I am talking about is the area below the stove in front of the water heater which...

    Looking 2 purchase, need advice!

    Am about to buy a 26SRL and would like to know what y'all would have on it from the beginning (besides that bug screen on furnace vent). Besides a wonder fan, stabalizing hitch, tire pressure sensors, what would you suggest?
