2015 Phaeton 40 QBH Water Heater Check Valve

Curious if anyone has replaced their water heater check valve through the access panel in the rear corner cabinet on a Phaeton 40 QBH?

Can you reach the Hot Out Line/Fitting and disconnect it?
Can you reach he Hot Out nipple screwed into tank and remove it?
That is what will be needed to replace the Hot Out Check Valve Assembly

Not sure, going to investigate once we get to warmer weather in a couple of weeks. I was curious if it had been done and if there were any tricks. I can get my head in the cabinet but likely not my shoulders. I do have a borescope though to check things out.

I wish that RV Designers HAD to spend time on factory floor or RV service center for 6 moths minimum before they were allowed to Design ANY RV!
