Condition: After winter storage (water system was drained only and stored in a garage.....no freezing). I find several suggestions. Will the following provide...
Hello Everyone! I purchased an '89 Chinook Concourse last fall, and of course, there have been several owners, and others I'm sure, who have been tinkerin'...
Unscrew the brass drain valve from the tank and it will drain a lot faster. As a matter of fact replace the drain valve with a 1/2" NPT plastic or nylon plug...
Thank you. But, what brass drain valve? I don't see it on the schematic. I know where the "stop valves" are that seem to start the drain process. Is it...
It does take *forever* to drain the water tank, but my solution is to plan around it. I begin draining the tank in the morning, and then go do something else...
Sounds like a plan. Any opinion on baking soda or vinegar that I've heard about? Yesterday, when I picked up an anode rod, the gal at the counter said to...
... I use a trace amount of plain bleach, with roughly 3/4 tankful or water. Drive around. Run all faucets. Have lunch. Drain and refill. I do wind up with...
Good chuckle out of that. Thanks. Last summer after I got the Chinook I did install a Pur on-the-faucet type of filter, but I was still hesitant, because I...
I just hook up my quick connect filter to the outside connection and the hose and turn it on... also can fill from the house side of the filter as needed. ...
Thanks. For the soda, would about 1/4 cup baking soda mixed into 1 gal of water, then fill the tank the rest of the way work? Or is that too much/not enough...
Thanks! ... From: George Poulsen <ghpoulsen@...> Subject: RE: [ChinookRVOwners] Re: Sanitizing water system after winter storage (without antifreeze in...
Still trying to figure out where my valves are, etc, so while mechanical isn't my thing, I am a microbiologist so can help with the sanitization thing. The...
We mainly use water from tanks for washing/teeth brushing etc. We use small bottled water bottles to fill all blank space in our refrigerator. It makes fridge...
How many gallons is your water tank? Mine is 30 gallons for my 1976 Chinook. Thanks. I'll try using the baking soda once I know how much to add to my full...
Interesting. I put a few filled water bottles on the refrig door last year to keep things from shifting I had there. I put one of those little frig fans on...
My fresh water tank is 32 gal. Yesterday, I used 1/4 cup when I re-filled the tank, then ran through, let sit just a little, ran down til a little was left...
... On my 1999 Premier, I learned relatively early on that the illustrations in the Chinook manual for the positions of the valves was wrong. Once I sorted...
We have just purchased a "new" 2005 Summit that has a backup camera that only works when in reverse. The monitor is on the visor and the inside looks exactly...
You have to agree that happiness was finding that broken wire! I was not sure what to do next, since all the obvious choices are covered by the fact that it...
We recently purchased a 2000 Chinook Concourse and have two questions we need help with: 1,? Where is the nozzle located that will allow you to empty your...
The Chinook Camping Club will be holding our Annual Rally and Meeting at Peace Valley Campground in Murphy, NC this October 15-18 (3 nights). If you are a...
Susan, Thank you so much for your professional advise. I have mistakenly believed the Moen filter was protecting me from bacteria. On the other hand, I...
Two ways to drain to the outside - first is to run the pump and use the outside shower that is located inside the small cubby above the spare tire. Second way...
Whoa! Folks! Mine has simply got three push buttons.no slide switch. Pushing one puts it on while driving forward so I can see the car behind. George H....
