We had the Splendide washer/dryer combo installed by the dealer. Never regretted it. You loose storage space but you gain independance from the lousy laundremats at campgrounds. Downside is small...

Just my experience, but despite the hassel and trouble, for me nothing works better than a tank wand with good water pressure (60 psig). I prefer the wand with one (1) nozzle so I can direct it...

Top off batteries

JMHO - that sounds like too much water to add on some new batteries. I would go one step further and check the gravity in each cell or at the least each battery. I know it would be a big hassel but...

Hi RDG384.
Bad news and good news. I assume you have Dometic A/C's? Bad news is there is nothing you can reset. Good news is that a 2015 is under a 2 year limited warranty.
