Fresh Water Holding tank valve leaking
Do any of y'all know where I can get a replacement fresh water fill valve for my Ventana short of calling Newmar LOL. Mine won't shutoff and it causes the fresh water tank to overfill. I am trying to run the water pump along with city water but I don't think that is helping any. If this valve can be rebuilt then I will gladly do that but I can't seem to find the valve anywhere. I am sure I am not searching in the right places. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

I think the RV Geeks did a video in the last 6 months or so on this subject (replacement). I think they found that the valve is a generic type valve sourced from a hardware store, but I don't remember for sure. Go to thervgeeks.com and search the plumbing category.

I replaced the entire waste valve system including both grey and black valves with the part from Newmar. I think it was 26 dollars. What I’m saying is not to write off Newmar for parts. They’re the right parts and might not be as expensive as you think. I’ve found their parts department both very helpful and reasonably priced.

That is my last resort Bill cause I called them for a entry door hinge that keeps the door propped open and they wanted 300 bucks. I got it else where for 85 so they are my last resort. Thanks

Yep exactly like mine so that shows how to replace it but where can I buy it short of going to Newmar

It looks like your model year they were still using the plastic-handled one. Lately Newmar has been using one with a metal handle, the ends are the same, though, just 3/4" PEX barbs. Actually, the plastic-handled one is discontinued, they suggest you to use this one:
You should be able to use a hardware store version with little or no modification:

Thanks for the info this is what I was hoping to find. Didn't know that home depot carried them, never would have thought to look there.
