Here is a question for the experts. We own a 2011 Elkridge 27RLSS. The warranty is about up, & I wanted to look at our fresh water tank to see if there were any problems. I dropped the underbelly from the curbside behind the tires. When I looked between the tank, and the insulation & the tank, it looked like there was a wet area over on the other side. I reached as far as I could, and in fact it was wet. I pulled down on the underbelly & looked between it and the insulation, and water ran out. Not much probably less than 1/4 cup. During the time I was trying to figure things out I did this several more times & got more water to run out. I tried to look from the other side, but couldn't get the underbelly down far enough to look, as it was behind the tires & I didn't feel like taking the tires off. On that side there are 2 lines running from in front of the tires to the rear tires, that are the drain lines for the hot & cold water, and from what I could determine there was more dampness there. I had the underbelly loose for about 2 1/2 days total. The coach was winterized & the water coming out was clear. Everytime I checked in the time the underbelly was loose water came out. Yesterday, I drained the system & charged the lines with fresh water. Had water in the tank, and left the pump on & it didn't cycle on & off like it was leaking. Didn't find any leaks on city water either. This morning I checked it & everything was dry. Our last trip was in Nov. & we did drive through some heavy rain several times. The only time it's been on the road since then, was about 5 trips to & from the dealer, but I don't remember driving in rain. I would think that if it was rain water collected from our Nov. trip, it would be gone by now, and that seemed like a lot of water for just condensation. Any ideas?
