My first time out with the 303 rls we had water coming out from under the shower pan. Checked in the pass thru behind the wall and water was dripping. I pulled the shower faucet (panel) off and the hot water side was leaking from the hose connection. I tightened the hose connection, turned back on the water and no leak.
I forgot to check the bathroom and kitchen sink , but I will along with checking all the screws in doors and cabinets which seem to work loose.Scott and Brenda

That is part of my regular inspection before every trip.
Everything in these vibrate and shake loose on the road.
Don't forget to check your 4 mounting bolts for the a/c units also.....Steve- Inventory Manager at Tom Schaeffer's RV, Shoemakersville, PA www.tomschaeffers.com

If you have the same shower unit that I have with the multiple settings on the long black "box" there is a single screw in the middle at the bottom. Take that one out and then lift and pull away from the wall. Carefully lift the pipes out with the unit. You can tighten the plumbing attachments but also the clamps that hold all the flexible tubing to the complicated shower section. I found some of mine not tight enough. You should also be able to see the black tank vacuum breaker behind it as well.

Sorry I wasn't clear on my post. Standing inside the shower there are 4 screws on a panel that has the hot and cold handles/valves. My panel was tape in with butyl, kind of hard to get off. I only had a hot and cold water connection on mine.
The hot was not even hand tight.Scott and Brenda

I pulled the faucet from my shower in an attempt to get access to the black tank flush anti siphon valve that is jammed in there and zip tied to the shower plumbing. It was so tight that I couldn’t really see in there while trying to cut the zip ties. Decided to not risk cutting them blind, right next to the plumbing lines. Instead I cut the tubing going up there and replaced the anti siphon (which was leaking) and mounted it at the same height on the outside of the shower wall. A much better design than the OEM “Grand” design IMO.

I've got 2 Airxcel A/C units and I can't find anywhere the torque specs on tightening the 4 mounting bolts. Nothing in the manual. I have not been able to find a phone number for the company that did not go to voice mail with no response. Would you possibly have a good contact number?
