The Valterra City Water Inlet and Lockable hatch # a01-2004vp has a plastic fitting and the other # a01-2000vp has a brass fitting. If you plan on traveling to colder climates, I would recommend getting the brass fitting. view full answer...
The Epicord 30 Amp Twist Lock Power Inlet - White # 277-000137 and the Mighty Cord Replacement RV Power Inlet - 30 Amp Twist Lock - White # A10-30INVP are nearly identical parts. They are both replacements for factory plugs and have moisture and dust protection built in. They are very similar in quality as well, so I recommend going with the less expensive option as you will get nearly the same product from different manufacturers. view full answer...
The Mighty Cord Replacement RV Power Inlet # A10-30INVP and the Epicord 30 Amp Twist Lock Power Inlet # 277-000137 are both 30-amp twist-lock inlets. They are essentially identical.
An example of a compatible cord is # A10-G30330VP; this has a 30-amp male twist-lock connector on one end and a 30-amp female on the other. The type of cord you need depends on what you're looking to connect to. Another example is the Furrion RV Power Cord # F3OR36SBOEM which is 36-feet long and has a 30 Amp... view full answer...
The Mighty Cord Replacement RV Power Inlet - Black # A10-50INBKVP and the RV Power Inlet - White # A10-50INVP referenced in your question are indeed the exact same product except for their color. These male twist-lock plugs will both accept a 50-amp female twist-lock plug and feature a threaded ring that creates a weatherproof connection. They both measure 3-3/4 inches long and 3-5/8 inches wide. As you mentioned, your only choice between the two models will simply be your color preference.

The Double RV Waste Valves # T68C and the Bristol Double RV Waste Valves # 34466ND17AAR are both going to serve the same purpose. The only real difference between the two is where they are manufactured.
The Bristol Double RV Waste Valves # 34466ND17AAR is made in the USA and the Double RV Waste Valves # T68C is not.
If being made in the USA means something to you, then you should go with the Bristol Double RV Waste Valves # 34466ND17AAR. Otherwise, you will be perfectly fine using the... view full answer...
The Mighty Cord RV Power Cord Adapter, # A10-3050D90VP is used to adapt your RV's 4-prong 50-amp power inlet for use with a 30-amp 3-prong extension cord/Power Pedestal. A 50-amp plug has four prongs with two of them providing 50-amps of power each. But the 30-amp RV service with 3-prongs only has one prong of power, one power wire from the 50 amp is not used.
The big difference to note between 50-Amp RV service and 30-amp RV service is that the 30-amp RV set-up provides a nominal 3,600... view full answer...
Tankless is definitely the route to go for a replacement water heater. This allows you to have hot water on demand and the RV industry is moving in this direction.
If you use the Excel RV Tankless Water Heater # EX93FR (38,00 Btu), then there is no need to run any electric. This water heater gets its power from 2 D-batteries.
If you went with either the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater # FR98SR (60,000 Btu) or the Fogatti RV Tankless Water Heater # LSB44FR (41,800 Btu), (needs the # CAM10423... view full answer...
The plastic that comes on the 50A SmartPlug RV Power Inlet and Connector # SM76FR is very durable and you'll be happy with it for years to come. The reason why SmartPlug offers the Stainless Steel alternative, Kit # SM96FR, is because they understand the desire for high-quality electrical parts so they wanted to offer a premium version. As durable as plastic can be, it will never last longer or be a better protector than Stainless Steel.
Attached are review videos for both options that... view full answer...
Thank you for your purchase of the Atwood Gas and Electric 10-Gallon Water Heater # AT94186 to replace your RV's failed unit.
In most RV applications an electric power source will tend to be more consistent than a gas source and so for that reason Atwood's technician told me that in typical use electric power delivers faster heating of the water. This is not a rule so much as simply the typical behavior of these devices.
RV gas pressure can change quite a bit from when a tank is full... view full answer...

On the T84 the 3" Hubs slide OVER your RV's black-water lines.
On the T84B the 3" Spigots slide INTO your RV's black-water lines.
I have included links to videos on each. view full answer...

The Valterra Universal Threaded Drain Valve # 3723175 is designed for applications of RV plumbing like what you mentioned. While it doesn't have an expressed temperature rating it was designed for plumbing where a water heater is involved and the normal temperatures it would create. view full answer...
The important thing to look at in a regulator is the water column pressure rating or W.C. because that is how you will see propane accessories rated. Propane appliances in RVs and trailers run off of low pressure and pretty much all regulators, including # CAM59013, will reduce the pressure to an 11 inch water column rating.
A single stage regulator does it all in one stage. On a dual stage regulator the pressure is reduced twice but still down to an 11 inch W.C. If you need to replace... view full answer...
The different water pressure regulators has to do with the construction of the material (brass/stainless steel), pressure range (40-50 psi/50-55 psi etc.), and additional features such as the inclusion of a gauge or built-in bend. I am not sure exactly what two products you are referring to as we offer several from each brand but they will both work to reduce the water pressure entering the trailer. I have attached a list of options for you. The difference in price has to do with the reasons... view full answer...
The part # T68 has a 3 inch and 1-1/2 inch hub that slide OVER a water line whereas the part # T68B has a spigot of the same size that slides INTO a water line.
So the differences are basically do you need a male or a female style setup. view full answer...
So the difference is purely in how the two connect to your sewer pipe, which will also tell you which one you need; one will slide into the pipe (the spigot) while the other will slide onto the pipe (the hub):
- Slide Into Pipe: Valterra Waste Valve for RV Black Water Tank - 3" Spigot to 3" Lug # T50A
- Slide Onto Pipe: Valterra Bladex Waste Valve for RV Black Water Tank - 3" Hub to 3" Lug # T50
To secure the valves to your pipe you would just need the Valterra ABS Solvent Cement # A05-0303. view full answer...
The Lippert 360 Siphon RV Vent Cap for Black Water Holding Tanks # LC389380 and # LC389381 are the exact same thing, just different colors.
If you plan on replacing your siphon vent(s) then you'll also want to use some butyl tape # AL33FJ and some self-leveling sealant # AL98KV to ensure a watertight seal. view full answer...
The SoftStartRV Soft Start for RV AC Units # SSR54FR is not just a larger capacitor like the Start Capacitor for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACMSCKIT. The SoftStartRV kit ties into both the run and start capacitors to allow the A/C to start up and run your 15,000 Btu AC on a 20-amp household hookup. It has an integrated bypass connector that prevents the unit from overheating and reduces the risk of the capacitor exploding and risk of fire. It is also IP65-rated against dust and water... view full answer...
