On a related note to this thread - Up until this trip I'd always used a pressure regulator on the hose bib but the pressure was being limited too much at our lot at Pacific Shores so I removed the regulator. Margaret was happy with the new found pressure, and I was too.
This morning I decided to flip the FILL switch ON and did so, and watched the water tank go from 20% to 30%, then I switched it OFF. I went back to my morning chores inside the coach and when I went to take Yusuf for a walk, well, there was water coming out of the overflow and I looked at the CMP and the water tank was now no longer 30% but instead it was FULL.
I quickly turned off the water at the source hookup, and the tank continued to dump out all over the pad. I went for a 10-15 minute walk or so, came back and it was still draining. I rechecked the hookup spigot AGAIN and it was off. Then noticed after a couple more minutes the draining had stopped. The CMP now showed 50% level in the water tank vs the full it showed before.
I was afraid to turn the water back on and have it start filling the tank again (even though the FILL switch was off). Margaret then piped up and said why not put the regulator back on because this has never happened before with that on. So I did, then I turned the water back on, and the tank was no longer filling. After having breakfast and seeing that the tank was still at 50% I took the regulator back off so see if water would again start flowing into the tank. It wasn't and all was well, so my thought was that due to the higher pressure coming in perhaps the RED HAT valve could open but not close due to the pressure, and that if I want to fill it and have it automatically close in the future to make sure I limit the pressure using the regulator.
Thoughts? And thoughts on why it overflowed and the CMP showed FULL, but after the overflow stopped we were at 50% (we are level).
