I don’t know where my hot water heater might be but I do know where my water heater is. If the water was already hot it wouldn’t need to be heated. ]]> Wed, 03 Mar 2021 05:29:05 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14414&PID=140482#140482 2021 R-Pod 190 Water Heater Bypass valve : I'm not sure if you found... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14414&PID=140481#140481 Author: DSBryant

I'm not sure if you found your Hot Water Heater or not.  They will either be under the bed, or in our case, you have to remove either the Vacuum Cleaner panel and remove the Vacuum unit - OR if you don't have a Vacuum Cleaner, you may need to remove the Fuse Panel assembly.  On our unit, that's where I found our hot water heater.   In the cavity under the fridge, behind one of the two panels.  

Good luck!

LOL we thought the same thing about the vacuum. Then we used it (after fixing it) and love it!]]> Thu, 25 Feb 2021 15:38:02 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14414&PID=140356#140356 2021 R-Pod 190 Water Heater Bypass valve : Originally posted by rcase13Ok... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14414&PID=140355#140355 Author: StephenH

Our first trip, I found that the drain for the kitchen sink was likewise not properly tightened and it leaked into the drawers beneath. It practically ruined two brand-new cookbooks. I was not happy. I was able to dry them out, but the pages were wrinkled up and since I don't have a book press, I have no real way to flatten them.

Ours is too early for a vacuum. Personally, I don't see that a built-in vacuum would be useful in a trailer the size of an RPod. I could see it in a larger unit though.

Pods are notorious for under the bed bypasses, some modify the plywood for easier access, me I just use compressed air and leave the bypass alone.]]> Mon, 22 Feb 2021 10:28:32 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14414&PID=140287#140287 2021 R-Pod 190 Water Heater Bypass valve : Ah thanks for that repost.

Ah thanks for that repost. I didn't bother to dissemble the bed because I thought no way they would but it under there... LOL

Thanks again. I searched and could not find anything. Sorry for the repeat question. I hate people like me that can't use search properly... Embarrassed

This was posted in 2018 by a 190 owner.

You must first remove mattress, bedding etc. then dissassemble the bed to get to it.  It really makes for a clumsy way of working.  Surely these folks could re-engineer this.  Very poor design

Does anyone know if the 190s have water heater bypass valve? I don't think it does as i can't find it anywhere.]]> Mon, 22 Feb 2021 09:54:57 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14414&PID=140282#140282
