Re: Water Heater replacement

Thanks guys - good advice - not sure how to remove the floor in the closet - would it involve cutting it out? Anyway I am showering in the van so hot might be a bonus and when I come to sell her defiantly a bonus :)

Re: Winterizing

Thanks for that detailed reply - so when I pull the heater I should try replace all the pipes there? Mir is an issue with our pipes because things don't fit into them anymore? What size are they and what should I now order in to replace pipes and install new valves ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks

Re: Smell from toilet

Thank you very much - so is it just an UN powered vent? Is it effective and easy to install?

Inside new cabinets fitting etc

Hi all I need more storage in my van - does anyone know anyone who makes them to fit the 1989 van?
