[drrussell]

Hi everyone i could use your help i have a 1998 national tradewinds 37ft coach and like it very much but i am in need of a watts water regulator and service valve mine must have frozen and broke. Does anyone know where i can find one i talked to some one at watts and they said that they no longer have them. Also some of the side windows the seal between the panes has moved and is making the glass black. Has anyone had this happen and if so do you have a fix for it. thanks for any help

Theberrys had their windows repaired by someone who did a great job and wasn't that expensive. IM him through this forum.

As far as anyone on this board can find out the Watts Regulator isn't made any more. But you can remove it and replace the functions with off the shelf plumbing fixtures.
Here is a link to drawnings of both with and without the Watts Unit.

My windshield was done by a local guy here in Albuquerque so I don't think he can help you unless you are going through sometime. He does it Mobile and came to my house. Here is a copy of his estimate which also became the bill. I had the figure eight gasket replaced as well so the costs reflect that.

Dick, his side windows have the creeping gasket problem, where did you have yours fixed?

[Theberrys]

This guy in Mesa AZ came to the park and fixed six of our creeping gasket side windows for $475.00.

Sorry I had just posted on another board about the windshield. DUH!
