Re: [A/S] Potable water

Do you need to take the fill off? I can access mine from under the sink and
can replace the tubing without removing the outside fill. Not sure what you
have locally but amazon hose (not affiliated with amazon.com) carries most
any size hose needed. HD and Lowes also carry a large selection of hoses.
Mine had been replaced with clear reinforced hose and a couple of clamps.
Fairly tight is okay just so it doesn't fall off and doesn't leak under low
pressure. After filling the tank there is no pressure to cause any leaking
at the connections.

I have a leak in my water fill. I found the flex tube between outside fill
and the tank to be split. I tried to remove the outside plate holding the
fill inlet but it did not want to come off. What am I doing wrong. Also, is
that flex tube 1 3/8? Wheee do I find it.

Thanks.

Hi Stan,

Don't know the vintage of your trailer but most A/S have the little lockable
door thing for water fill. After you take out the 4 screws you need to cut
the Vulcum (sp?) caulking… carefully slide a razor blade under the edge.
Not sure of the size of that ribbed plastic tube but I've seen some at Lowes
that looks just like it.
