    A window into diverter valve leak

    Thanks to whoever suggested replacing the side panel to the water connection panel with plexiglass!

    We have had issues with our "plastic" water hose connection and now, the diverter valve. First, the hose filler threads were disintegrating and most recently the diverter valve leaked from the "tank fill" side of the valve. Vibration or cold? Not sure, the trailer was winterized. Replaced the diverter valve and the hose filler (with a brass one). Got the B&B diverter off Amazon in 2 days. Connected those parts with a flexible 12" NPT hose as it was easier than cutting and clamping a PEX horseshoe. Used a bunch of PEX clamps...couldn't reuse some of the fittings.

    The plexiglass panel makes it easy to spot leaks before they do too much damage and quickly diagnose our plumbing issues.
