I had to top it off once a few months after delivery and that has been it. 277 hours on the Oasis unit.

I think you may need to top it off after purchasing new, once the bubbles and high spots fill in. After that, it shouldn't require any additional fluid. On my 2014 DS, I never added any, after initial top off, in five years.

Thanks for the replies. I think i may need to look into a leak.
2013 Ventana is new to us, but should be way passed air in system from new. Filled to cold high mark and after latest trip, fuid at bottom of reservoir. Topped it again and need to check for leaks.

Yep sounds like a leak. You may want to start at the pumps in the distribution box. I know the 2016 Ventana had issues with the cheap pumps ITR out sourced (I spoke with them and that’s their take not just hearsay). Not sure if you have the same pump.

Mine was leaking and it ended up being the cap not closing tight at the Oasis (not at the overflow tank at the back of the rig (in engine compartment).
