Yes, it is an Atwood water heater, but there is no mixing valve that I can see. Long ago, back in 1976, I used to live in Magnolia, Delaware. I worked at C&L Electronics which used to be on the...

I'm in IT and I have to say, I violated every rule I know about suspecting changes causing a problem. I would have thought the water pump out of the box was adjusted properly. It never dawned on...

It did work! :clap: With everything off (no AC or TV or generator), I could hear the pump cycling--the new pump with the silencing kit is really quiet. It took a couple of tries, but I ultimately...

I'm going to try everything--easiest first. :) I think the thing that gets me is I replaced the water pump then this stuff started. I didn't notice it at first because I only checked flow.

Just got off the phone with SHURflo. They said to adjust the shutoff pressure 1/2 turn clockwise. It makes sense because if I run water--either hot or cold--I get pulsing in the flow. So, we'll...

According to Winnebago, mine has two check valves as well. Kicker is, the guy I spoke to at Winnebago yesterday doesn't think it's the check valves. He thinks all three inside faucets need to be...

Thank you. I think I have some work to do. I can't believe the amount of thread compound they have on in the picture that shows the top connection. That has me a bit worried.

Here are a couple of pictures. Note, my water heater has pipes from engine cooling to heat the water as I drive.

I will have to research the location. My water heater is on the passenger side in the front compartment. There looks to be room to get in there for a smaller person, but not for me. :(

When you say failed, did it fail to bypass or just broke? It's a simple valve and mine shows no signs of blockage or improper operation.

Thanks!

Thank you for that, please excuse this question as this is a major thing to get to and replace: Have you actually experienced this?

Thanks for understanding,
