New to me Flagstaff owner no hot water pressure
Hello everyone,
I recently purchased a used "new to me" 2006 Flagstaff 831RLSS. It's in great shape. I knew when I bought it that it had an issue with the hot water system however, I am pretty handy and am hoping it is an easy fix.
I know the heater is functioning as I was able to get hot water by opening the pressure relief valve.
However, when I have the bypass valve closed so it pressurizes the hot water tank, I get no pressure at all from any faucets. It is almost like the output valve on the tank is closed however, mine doesn't have a valve coming out on the hot water side.
I have read on previous posts that their is a check valve that sometimes is a culprit however, I don't even see a check valve. It's a clear plastic line going outbound of the hot water side and then it goes straight down from there. Is it possible the check valve is located underneath the trailer behind the plastic cover?
Does anyone have any ideas where the check valve could be located? Does anyone have an idea if it could be something else other than this check valve?
Please help, hoping to get it fixed so I can take the family out atleast once before the cold sets in here in Northeast PA.
Thanks in advance!
