Hello,
ful and had it delivered mid May of 2014 to our permanant park location with a town water supply hookup.
About 2 weeks ago, our 2014 North Trail 26 LRSS, which is about 13 months old, began to leak water out of the toilet though the water was off and we were absent. We got a call from our park manager saying that there was water leaking out of the back door (bedroom). As we had left a key for emergencies, he went in saw that the toilet water supply sprayer had water dripping into the toilet from itm thus causing it to eventually overflowe onto the floor and the water found its way under the wall and outside, either under the bedroom door or near it.
This was a mystery as the town water supply valve was shut off. Our park manager propped the toilet drain valve open with a wood shim so that any further water that might come in would run into the black water tank. Unable to get to the park that is 2 hours from home, we called our dealer who inspected the situation 3 days after the fact. He reported that all was dry and he could not see anything. The water seems to have stopped leaking.
Concerned about a recurrence, I opened and drained the blue and red valves under the trailer near the bathroom. I am not sure if that is effective, but I wanted to do anything to prevent a recurrence.
Has anyone had this experience? If so, do you know what caused it? Diverter valve? Check valve? I am still getting to know my trailer and would be grateful for any suggestions as to how to find the cause of the problem and prevent a recurrence.
