  • Is Accumulator Tank Needed for HydroMax RV Fresh Water Pump
  • If you'd like you can use an accumulator tank with the HydroMax RV Fresh Water Pump - 12 Volt - 3 Gallons Per Minute - 55 psi # P25201. It has standard 1/2 inch fittings so you can use the Seaflo Accumulator Tank for Marine and RV Water Pumps # SE38FR. An accumulator tank is not needed, but is a nice convenience feature because it makes the water pump system quieter; it traps and absorbs water and air in the tank which lessens the noise. So while it is not necessary, it is a nice thing...

  • Do Dometic Water Heaters Have An Anode Rod?
  • Dometic water heaters like the Dometic RV Water Heater # AT96121, which is no longer available, do not have anode rods. If your water heater is giving off a bad odor, I recommend sanitizing your entire system including your fresh water tank. What you can do is pour some bleach in you fresh water tank at a ratio of 1/4 cup of bleach to every 15 gallons of water. Then run it trough all your faucets until you smell the bleach. You'll want to also fill your water heater with this solution....

  • How To Reduce Noise From Your RV Water Pump
  • Having worked with a good majority of the water pumps we currently carry they all are about the same noise level. Most of what you're really hearing is just the vibration of the water lines as the pump works. A really cheap fix is to cover them with some foam pipe insulation to help silence the vibration. You could also add a layer of rubber to space where you plan on mounting the Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump # LC689054 to help dampen any vibration between it and the floor.
