Easy way to spot where it is roughly is to see where the water heater panel is on the outside. Then look inside at that area for an access panel or door or (if under the bed) under a panel. I don't have that model, so I can't say for sure, but that is where I would start. ------------- StephenH Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7712 - ouR escaPOD mods Former RPod 179 Current Cherokee Grey Wolf 24 JS |

Hopefully the previous owner did not fill it with 6 gallons of antifreeze! The bypass valves and pump should be in the same general area. ------------- Gpokluda 2017 Rpod 179(sold 2023) 2022 Escape 5.0TA 2022 Ford F150 4X4 3.5EB Kawasaki KLR650 |

Most Rpods have the water heater access and the vents for the furnace co-located on the side of the trailer.
The large, black panel is the cover for the water heater. The two round vents are the furnace.  ------------- bp 2017 R-Pod 179 Hood River 2015 Ford F150 SuperCrew 4WD 3.5L Ecoboost |

It looks like your hot water heater is located between the rear storage area and the slide out the driver's side. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-diIkDBMra0&ab_channel=BennieAust ------------- 2021 Rpod 196 2013 Ford 150 V8 |
