    Plumbing Rebuild and Kantleak Replacement

    This past week I worked on replacing my Anderson KantLeak valve with a new Anderson RValve (all brass). While doing the valve replacement I decided to remove all the "flex" hose from the plumbing system. The attachment outlines all the work done with photos. We are out this weekend testing the new configuration.

    In the end, the ounce of prevention should allow for fewer plumbing related issues. Over the past 12 months, I had a hot water flex line burst and some fitting failures. I have a valve on the water inlet that permits me to turn off city water behind the locked door and dump any water pressure before leaving camp. My original plan was to replace every line of pipe in the coach and utilize a manifold system. Maybe when I retire, I will have the time for a more elaborate plan. For now the rebuild should instill more confidence in the plumbing configuration.
