R-Pod Owners Forum has helped me solve many issues, many times. A forum thread may be old/dated, but can still be relevant today. It's also a great place to see other podder's "Pod-Mods" and get inspired. Happy camping!

I know this thread is a little dated, but I really appreciate the information. I woke up this morning with a pool of water on the ground and this information helped me identify and correct the issue. All three of the bolts we loose, but the front one was the worst and was where the water was. I guess they will need to be checked periodically. Thanks all!]]> Fri, 29 Jul 2022 16:35:08 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15022&PID=149148#149148 Ceiling unit cover removal : Thank you one and all for your... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15022&PID=145925#145925 Author: Jenga Jack

Definitely make sure the bolts are tightened once you have the cover removed. Common problem.

Had the same problem with our 179 and finally tracked it down to loose bolts holding the back of the unit to the roof.  The seals were all good but water was leaking between the seal and the unit.  Once it was tightened down never had a problem with it.]]> Fri, 05 Nov 2021 18:30:05 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15022&PID=145919#145919 Ceiling unit cover removal : Took cover off but couldn't... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15022&PID=145916#145916 Author: Jenga Jack

Took cover off but couldn't find source of leak or drain holes. Not sure where drain holes are located or what they look like, nothing obvious, anyway. Perhaps a 2014 unit is different from newer models?

The drip was very slow, about 1 per 2 minutes, and only during heavy downpour. Hopefully tightening bolts is solution. I'll check again next rain storm.

Thank you both.
I took the inside cover off, couldn't see any sign of a leak (of course it isn't raining now) and snug tightened some bolts. Next I'll take outside cover off and check roof, caulking, and drain. I'll post my findings to this chain.

I had the leaking problem once, nothing wrong on the inside unit, I took the cover of the unit on top and clean the unit with water and a air and found debris blocking the drain once I removed a leaf that was blocking the drain the leakage inside stop. ]]> Thu, 04 Nov 2021 12:58:22 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15022&PID=145907#145907 Ceiling unit cover removal : Hello StephenH,I found a previous... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15022&PID=145905#145905 Author: Jenga Jack

Hello StephenH,
I found a previous post related to how to remove ceiling cover. The original post is titled "Air conditioner leaking when on" dated July 30, 2021. You replied to the post with a photo with screw locations. I will give it a try. Thanks for your help!

I don't have a picture showing the screw locations, but there are multiple screws holding it up on the inside. Look carefully with a flashlight, and you should see the screw heads. Check behind flaps around the perimeter and in the perforated area. They are not hard to remove once you find them. If I remember correctly, there are 8 screws that you need to remove. You may wish to use the advanced search and see if you can find the picture I mentioned.

Does anyone know how to remove the plastic ceiling cover for the AC on the inside of an R-Pod? (photos are from our 2014 R-Pod 178)
Our latest camping trip we encountered a steady downpour for many ours, and at one point water started to drip from that plastic housing. I tried to gently tug on the plastic but it wouldn't release, and I didn't want to yank it off. Any suggestions on how to remove this without damage?
