Water manifold access
« on: August 25, 2025, 04:11:38 PM »
Good morning.   Wondering if there u
Is access from my bathroom to my water manifolds??   98 beaver patriot.  37 ft.

There is a removable cover adjacent the toilet.  Not big enough to do anything.   But. Just wondering.

The short answer is no  thewater line run down through the floor there but there is no hatch to allow access to the water manifold in the wet bay below.

To access the manifold you have to remove the wet wall ( the one with all the valves) in the wet bay and pull it outwards it will be possible then to lay that wall face down to access the manifold which is attached to the back of that wall.
This is possible because the pex line have enough extra length and flexibility to get the movement you need.

Many of us here have reworked that wet wall be cutting it in half which allows it to come out easier.

Hope this helps

Yes. I was thinking the same thing.   I've had to cut chunks out  just to get to the culprit leaders already.   Was just hoping for a easier method.    Thx.
