No hot water pressure at any of the faucets.

I have a 2005 Winnebago Adventurer 35A and have not experienced any previous problems with the hot water pressure. Now I do not have any hot water pressure at any of the faucets. I have searched the forum for anyone that has experienced the same issue and many of the members have stated to inspect the check valves at the rear of the water heater.

Does the hot water heater have to be completely removed to access the rear of the hot water heater or is there a way to access it from inside this model of RV? If anyone on the forum has experienced the same problem and has any information I would really appreciate the assistance or information.

Thanks in advance

Sounds like your by-pass valve got shut off. If you have the three valve system that is. Or your hot water low point drain is open.

Two options.. If you have a 3 valve bypass. all 3 may be closed, (Two should be open for hot water)

If you have a 1 or 2 valve system (And sometimes on 3) there is a check valve on the hot water outlet.. IT may be stuck closed, I have seen this with my own eyes.

The RVer who owned that rig fixed it two ways

1: Gutted the valve thus restoring full hot water flow,, Since they wintereize by the dry method they did not need the check valve anyway.

2: Traded the trailer in on a very nice new one.

Don't overlook the simple explanation either. I had a problem with hot water flow and it turned out that the hotwater feed hose was getting kinked by the slideout.
