Does the 2014 Essex Have Active Air

[jtovo]

I've been searching this Forum & tired of reading thru all the posts that discuss the Active Air System, does anybody that owns an Essex know if it comes equipped with the HWH Active Air ?

I'm guessing that it doesn't have HWH Active Air. I spoke with HWH about getting it added to our coach. They wanted $9k, and on further investigation, I found that the Hadley system on our coach is really close to the HWH system.

I second what nforus said.

Essex and King Aire uses the Hadley system. Hadley doesn't sell to the public.

I had HWH had air leveling to our Dutch Star and redbaron73 had them add Active Air to their Dutch Star.

There was a company in Texas that made a restriction for the air line that connects the air bags on the same axle to help limit body roll.

Here is Hadley's website:Heavy Duty Truck & Transit Business Division | HadleyAdvantage

Thanks, PDR John.
You would think that they would put this kind of information in the brochure, when a potential buyer is com pairing Motorhome's that's what you use to make a comparison.
The Essex brochure says "air leveling control system" the owners manual doesn't say anything.
