JC..THEO here Buddy....!! Sold the Citation - Bought a 32' 2007 TravelAire TT346 & living in it..!! This is exactly the info I needed. Touch base sometime my friend..!!
Hi there, thanks for your interest! You should be able to order this skylight from any Coachmen/Forest River RV dealer. The factory part # is F100300662. We can order for you if you are in Canada - price would be about $1,500 Canadian dollars + the freight of shipping such a large item. Feel free to contact our parts team if you wish to order.
There could potentially be a clog in the system, or a mechanical failure with the handle mechanism. This especially probable if the handle is on an extension cable. The cable can become disconnected and not actually open the valve when the handle is pulled.
Thank you for explaining everything we needed to know and yes keep doing videos where us newbies can learn more of traveling trailer or campers or class c motor homes.
This was helpful to me because my blck tank didnt have the valve to pull it was just a little metal stick sticking out but after i watched this video i got the plyers and had at it
That's great! Glad this video was helpful. You can actually buy replacement handles for the valves to make it easier. They just thread on and are pretty afforadable!
Hello! Give our parts department a call or text at 403-207-1666 and provide the details of your motorhome. Let's see if we can help you out. We're awaiting your call or text!
NO, NO, NO..... you FAIL. You must treat the area between area between the RV and the dump fitting as if it were "Radioactive". Fact is someone before probably dumped wrong and contaminated the area cement surface with poop. The guy in the video "Took a Knee", and subsequently contaminated the top of his pants.
Hi there, it is a bit more inconvenient, but you can grab the awning arms near the top and pull to unroll it. It helps to have two people to do this, one on each side. A ladder may also be helpful to you. Happy camping!
Thanks for the video and the humor. I am about ready to jump my living quarters horse trailer for the first time. This was very informative on something that has scared the sh*t out of me to try...lol
Hi Keith, We wanted to measure this TV for you, but this trailer has since sold from our lot. Coachmen does not seem to have the info handy, but our sales team seems to recall it is a 45" TV. Sorry we don't have more concrete information on this for you! Are you looking to replace a TV in your current unit? If we have a little more info on your request, we would be happy to help dig a little deeper!
What if you’re hooked ti a sewer drain all the time? How do you keep the tank draining? I thought if was open it would if it automatically if it were hooked into a sewer drain. But it doesn’t apparently cause my drain won’t work
That is a great question! When you have a sewer drain at your site, you should keep your tank valves closed. Only use the sewer drain to empty the tanks when they are about 2/3 full to get the best draining action. When you leave your tank valves open all the time, the liquids drain from the tank, leaving solids behind to build up and clog your tank. If you are facing a clogged tank, close the valves, fill with water and toilet chemical and let it sit. Move the RV if possible to agitate the tank, then try to dump. You may need to try a more aggressive product such as Thetford Tank Blaster.
Great question! Most dump stations are designed for these inevitable accidents with a sloped concrete apron around the sewer opening. Just give it a good hose down with the provided non-potable water hose. If you are in an environment other than a dump station - same thing applies, wet the area down the best you can. Ideally the toilet chemical has done it's job to break everything down. If there are any TP remnants left, just use some gloves to pick up and dispose of it properly.
Hi Todd, Our parts team had a few suggestions of things you could try. They are not technicians, and without seeing it, it is hard to diagnose exactly, but they are happy to share their years of experience in hopes of helping. 1) Sometimes you need to give the awning a little extra tug out to loosen the pressure on the lever so it will go back into the rollback position. 2) Or, the ratchet mechanism might be damaged and need to be replaced. 3) Make sure the nut on the rafter arm is loose. Otherwise it won’t collapse back in when trying to roll it up. Best of luck and happy camping!
Great question - It depends on the dump station! Many municipalities have free public dump stations. Campground dump stations are typically included with your camping fee, but some have an additional nominal fee. You may find private dump stations charge a fee to help offset the cost of waste removal. It is best to read up on the area you will be staying to know before you arrive so there are no surprises.
Not good advice/video at all. First get a 4" clear extension to go between the hose and camper, 2nd get a clear 90 degree tapered elbow to go from the hose into the drain. 3rd hook the water line to the black tank flush valve. Turn on the water to spray water into the tank for 2-3 min, dont over fill. Open black tank valve, the clear extensions allow you to see when color of water is clear and debris is no longer present. Close black tank, open gray tank. Once gray tank has drained, reopen black tank to drain tank flush that was going on while gray tank drained. Turn off water, allow black to drain fully, unhook all hoses. Do not cap sewer hose in bumper, allow it to air dry. If you dump like this guy said your black tank will not be empty and you will get a poop pyramid.
I reckon this should be donated to me and shipped to Australia so this 68 yr old female could do what she always dreamed of while she is still more than capable of doing. Yeah I know..... keep dreaming ☹
I’m really struggling here but a camp ground in a national forest dumps right next to a river n seems like should be illegal, I think seeping into ground water to quickly n I don’t know who to even tell or ask
Hello, sorry this one is currently pending sale. However, as the Northern Spirit dealer in the Calgary region, we'd love to have you connect with one of our sales team or come on in to see which other travel trailers may work for you. We can be reached at 403-207-1666.
Hi there, happy to help! It is important to give it a good "base" in the black tank to prevent buildup, and to allow the chemical to mix thoroughly. To accomplish this we suggest holding the toilet flush valve open for about 20- 30 seconds to let fresh water into your black tank.
i’m about to buy a trailer but i have a question. how often do i need to empty my tanks? need answer asap we are trying to buy it now thanks!!please help!!
Hi Trent, It depends on a few factors including how large the tanks are (some trailers even have tandem grey tanks), how many people are camping with you, how well they conserve water, etc. A solo camper or couple can typically get through a whole weekend of camping and "normal" water usage before dumping the tanks. Many times longer!
Hello Tim! It is not available with a traditional 2-way or 3-way RV fridge from the factory. This is the trend we are seeing from many of our manufacturers. While anything is possible to adapt here in our shop, we estimate this change could cost close to $20k. The larger Norcold or Dometic RV fridges (avail as 2-way only) are extremely expensive and there are additional costs to add the propane line as well as challenges associated with removing such a large residential fridge (perhaps removing a slide or window!) We'd be happy to discuss power requirements such as solar, inverter, etc based on your specific needs!
C'est magnifique! C'est merveilleuse ! Lovely! Much better floorplan than many other larger, more expensive RVs like 2024 Renegade Veracruz 30 VRM or even the much larger Valencia 38BB ! It amazes me (in a negative way...) how the larger RVs seem to waste space ... No one needs a massive 2m x 2m bed! Whats the population % to actually use this ?! Prolly less than 1 % :)) Your bed is sufficient for 2 large adults + 1 kid ages 3-7 ...not to mention the kid can easily bunk above the driver
