Greetings folks, I have a two question post, not related.
1. I have been thinking of installing a 15,000 BTU A/C on my motor home instead of the 13,500 unit that I presently have. The question in my mind, is can the circuits in my motor home handle the momentery load? My motor home is set up for 30 amp service. The specs I have seen on the 15,00 BTU units are that it takes 38/40 amps on the start up phase. Would my current wiring be able to handle the extra amps?
2. The vent pipes and over flow pipes from my fresh water tank are full of mold and mildew. Other then removing the bed, (tank and pipes are underneath the bed), and taking the pipes off to clean them, does anyone have a suggestion as to how I might be able to cure this problem. I do not taste or smell the mildew in the water. We also take bottled water for drinking and cooking. We mostly use the fresh water tank for flushing the potty. We do sometimes shower with it.
Thanks, Jerry
