Will MH Air Brakes Still Function if Air Leak Develops in BrakeMaster Tow Bar Braking System RM-9100
Question:
I have a new super-c MH and want to have this system installed. Will the MH air brakes still work effectively if this system develops a leak? Is the 1/4inch line small enough that a leak would not cause an immediate issue? I noticed there are lots of connections and Im concerned if a leak develops.

Yes, normal operation of your motorhome's air brakes will be maintained in the unlikely event that an air leak were to develop in the Roadmaster BrakeMaster Braking System # RM-9100.
The air lines in your coach are much larger than those in the BrakeMaster and if the unit were to develop a leak your onboard compressor would easily keep up with it. My contact at Roadmaster confirmed that if, for example, a 5-year-old unit were to develop a 10% air leak this would not even trigger the warning alarm, let alone affect braking performance of either the coach or the toad.
