There's no such thing that I know of in an Aquahot system. If there is, than I've learned something too.

No return air filters on Aqua Hot system. Only filters are on the AC/Heat pump vents on the ceiling.

When I got my coach out of the Freightliner shop, the service and house switches were turned off. They do this every time I take it to them. When I turned them on this last time the house switch light would not go on. Doesn't seem to have any effect on operational items.

Trower,
Indeed... No return-air filters. Each heater is made up of (typically) 3 small, computer-size cooling fans. The 12-volt DC fans draw air from the space they occupy...with no filtering. If you were to lift up the MBR bed (rather heavy!), you can see what this beast looks like. And for the basement zone, my fans/heater are above the slide-out tray. To spot them is to lay on your back and look upward.

Winnebago Tour Tips

My headlights seemed dim

Ordered Led replacement kits from Headlight Experts. Easy to install and much brighter. Nice upgrade.

I was planning on ordering H9 LED's after the holiday. What can you share about the beam pattern on the Tour? I'm concerned about blinding oncoming traffic.

On their website now looking for this. Did you get for both high and low beam?

I did some looking at the aqua Hot fans and I agree, Robi that there's no easy way to add a filter.

The inverter quit on my 2014 Tour the other morning while boon docking a making coffee. I presumed it was low voltage. I checked the display and low voltage was not the problem. The inverter remote display was blank. I started the gen and all the outlets came on except the ones controlled by the inverter. I restarted the gen a few times and finally all came on. The inverter remote snowed zero battery voltage but the other display showed 12.6 volts. We had breakfast and then I stopped the gen thinking everything was good. My inverter remote display was off again. I spent two hours trouble shooting and found a 400 amp fuse located just rear of the batteries along the frame. If you follow the positive cable from the rear battery bank it attaches to the fuse. The fuse was burned so I called Magnum and they said this was not uncommon and caused by a surge or spike. Ebay was my best choice for purchasing as Amazon was crazy expensive.

Jessie that is kinda interesting since I just replaced our chassis battery switch. Our switch would barely glow so I thought at first it might be a weak ground but that wasn’t it. Must be a 2013 model thing.

Trower, that's good to know about that fuse. So it's under the coach, next to the frame? I assume the line then runs up to the inverter?

I am also curious why this one not ones like the ones on amazon? Was there something special and was the cable needed?
