1999 Winnie Adventurer Question

[poetcb]

Hello All,
Just bought a 1999 Winnie Adventurer and have found a leak I can't figure out. The leak is in the compartment that houses the outside shower...We've double checked the hot and cold water controls on the shower unit itself, they appear to be off, however the leak continues. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks All and have a great day!

Leak into the compartment like rain or leak in the compartment? If in the compartment, I can sympathize with you - had the same problem. I dropped the shower controls and found two (PEX maybe?) plastic pipe connections that were only finger tight. Used this as an opportunity to check as many as I could find. Found a few more that needed tightening but were not leaking. Good luck

Hi Doc,
Thanks for the info. Our leak is in the compartment itself. We'll take a look again at the shower controls however, the water doesn't appear to be coming from that unit. The shower hose and the hot/cold controls are dry.

i don't know if my water service panel and compartment is similar to yours.
i had a vacuum breaker valve in the black tank water flush system that leaked fresh water into this compartment. the access to this valve on my moho was behind the 2 drawers in the bathroom.
these valves are available at home improvement stores. you will probably have to use adapters for the lines.
i replaced this valve with 2' of coiled clear plastic 5/8'' tubing on my moho. this setup does not leak anymore. i use a vacuum breaker one way check valve on the external black tank flush hose fitting so i can see it if it leaks.
