Just purchased our 2007 Damon Challenger 372 about four months ago. In the back bedroom bed slide side in the corner next to the chair we hear a water running noise every time you use the sinks toilet or shower. Can be annoying when you get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, it is loud enough to wake you up. I know that is were the outside water hookup is, but don't think it should be making that much noise. Anyone else notice that noise?? Taking it in to have some minor problems fixed first week of March I am going to see what the service tech thinks.

look at the base of the wall. There should be a thin angled piece of wood that bridges the gap between the wall and the floor.
Damon runs the water lines under this angled wood, at least that is how they do it in my Daybreak. If you are using the city water connection, you are hearing the water running through the lines as it comes into the coach from the city water connection.

At least that is what I think it is. Check for wet spots as well. If it is not just the water running through the lines, check the fittings to make sure there is not a small leak.

Good Luck, and welcome!
Bill

I think Bill is right. I'm not familiar with that design but I'm wondering if the line is pressing against the wood amplifying the noise.
I have a few of those carpeted angled pieces and have removed all of them. The screws are hidden within the carpet but come right out then back in again with no evidence they have been touched. I would want to remove the piece and run the shower to see exactly what was going on.
