I'm sure most of you know what I'm about to post, so I don't mind if everyone wants to laugh at me... Last week our family took a trip up through Oregon from warm and sunny central Ca. The weather in Or. was not quite as warm and sunny as I was used to. Last summer I put in a brand new electric water heater and water heat exchanger because the original ones were leaking. We also used our furnace for the very first time. The old water heater did heat the water up and it usually took 30 min, so I though, to heat up the water. Since most of our camping has been dry camping we would always run the gen for 45 min in the morning and evening. I would turn the "water" heater switch on in the kitchen so we could have hot water, and it always worked until this trip. I also thought I had an electrical problem because the furnace fans only turned on when I switched the "water" heater switch. After calling Jim at Rixens, he taught me a lot about our coach. The switches were not water heater switches, but furnace hi/low fan switches( I also found one in bedroom). He remembered that on our coaches if the water spray valve is left on(hot&cold) the hot water will blend with the cold and you will only have warm water at best. After closing the valve we enjoyed nice hot showers on our last morning. I also had flame out problems with my Hurricane water heater, but that was a simple fix as well... The exhaust pipe slipped off right under the heater and the wind was blowing out the flame. I just thought I would share so anybody else who reads this might be saved a lot of grief.
PS... my coach didn't come with an owners manual, but I am printing one out now...
