If it were me, I'd contact a local spray foam insulation company. Closed cell insulation has amazing R values and also adds strength. I had a spray foam company renting from me for awhile and my whole 5k sq/ft shop with 14' ceilings is foamed. Can't beat it. Plus, in the overall scheme of things, it's not that expensive. I'd put "Closed Cell" foam in mine if I were tearing it down. Deadens the sound as well.

cool! We're gonna try it this weekend. It's got a manual pilot light. See, I like the idea of an electric unit, but as of yet this RV doesn't have a generator and I'm puzzled as to where to put one.

I'm an idiot...I now know all about rv plumbing! Turns out, there was a shutoff on the top "bypass" valve that I hadn't noticed before since it was on the back side of the valve. I opened that and the heater now works perfectly! I still have a question though...does it run full bore all the time? Or does it kick on, kick off to maintain water temp. Just wondering if I should only start it as needed or if I can leave it running for awhile without any worries.

Let me preface this by saying I'm not that familiar with how rv water systems work. The pop-up that I grew up with didn't have one this complicated. We just got this unit and I started turning everything on today. The cold water side works great. The hot water side doesn't so much. I see where the cold water supply comes in at the bottom. It has had a bypass valve installed with a hose going between the water line in and the hot water line out. I made sure that the valve was open TO the hot water heater and the bypass hose was shut off. If you leave the hot water closed at the sinks for awhile, it builds up pressure sprays a little water then stops. Again, cold side is fine, and there are no known leaks that I can find. Anything I should look at or try? The water heater turns on and heats just fine, just not sure what's up with getting it water. I promptly shut it back off, since without water I dont want to make a bomb! HELP!

what is the proper way to measure them?

I've been a fan of these for years, and just got one for our family. It's a 1980 Dolphin 300-T Housecar. It's already had the dually "problem" fixed. Is one with a "tag" axle kind of rare? I've never seen one set up this way....
