  Aquahot Fluid capacity

How many gallons of boiler fluid does our Aquahot hold? I know some of our systems are different but a rough guess. I feel like I'm draining the engine as well with as much that is coming out.  Big Grin

I'm planning on trading in my 2011 Tahoe LT 4x4 this summer and wanted to see if anyone is interested first.  It has middle row captain seats, third row, brown with tan leather interior. Exterior and interior is in very good condition, no rust, driver seat has a bit of wear but no tears, couple dings on exterior.  Just under 200,000 miles but that will go up some. This week it's in Baton Rouge but Friday we're driving to our cabin near Gunnison, CO and will be there all summer.  It has a Demco baseplate along with ReadyBrake setup.  No longer have a motorhome and looking to downsize a bit.

PM me here if you're interested.

  17.75 Gallons of Oil

That probably got your attention!  

Next time you (or your wallet) feel worn out changing your oil, you can console yourself that my beasts just took 8 gallons of Delo 100 40WT *EACH* plus 7 quarts for a genny (only changed one, have barely used the other one this year).  Thank goodness for O'Reilly's ($25 a gallon less 10% veteran discount) and NAPA for the filters (10% AAA discount) - I was short a gallon of Rotella for the genny so another $37 to West Marine. 

Cheers!

Photo New minisplits onboard

After much consideration and consultation, we finally got off the couch and installed our minisplit. 
Just as no two Newell are the same, neither are the owner's needs, use and/or taste

I just bought #463 in February and decided to put new system in rather than bothering with either of the two original SCS 2702 units at all. One works and the other kinda wants to. So if anyone needs, I'll give you a great deal.

My 4 main considerations were
1. new technology 
2. AC
3. Heat
4. Darn near silent operation 

I chose to install a single 24k concealed ducted unit and plumb to existing ducting

Original configuration had 2 SCS 2702 unit in R2 front and L2 rear. I sealed off R2 with 2in insulation board I had lying around and sealed with very tight perimeter with foam, and fabricahted a shroud to vent thru floor as originally designed with the rear also venting same way.

The understair return air box and L2 now house the ducted unit which was connected to original ductwork with an  additional tube run into the salon. That additional duct tube has not found its permanent location as of yet but will be low mounted as the two original ducts are in the driverside columns.

As i am still a wannabe junior guru, so i did cheat alittle and hired a local hvac contractor for sizing math, fabricated ducting and proper connections/hookup, with the side benefit being he's offering a full warranty 

Thank you to all I've pestered throughout this process, I promise not to leave you alone as I delve deeper into the next project...lol

On my 95 -392 Newell one of my old thermostats quit working, can’t find anything to replace it with or anyone to repair it, Dometic says only choice is to replace complete unit. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hello All - I just purchased #1718 and have returned back to Newell ownership. This is our 3rd Newell. We bought a used 1995 Newell from the factory, we bought #1208 (I think) back in 2010, and now we are back. Looking forward to getting some things sorted out on this coach with the help from the Gurus!

Hi there Newell doesn't have any rotors or brake pads for my 2005 coach 719.  There has to be some cross reference numbers somewhere I'd imagine.  I can't seem to find within the Newell Gurus group.  The coach does have the zf suspension with steerable tag axle.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you
