During our trip to Sunset Beach NC in 2016 I hooked up to the city water and failed to check the water pressure. By the next day the cold water on the factory restroom faucet was dripping. I put my 40 lbs pressure regulator inline and finished our week.
During the week the drip continued. On the way home the leak got so bad the faucet failed and we could not use the on board water system because of the leak. We had to keep the pump off. No shutoff valves, no shower and no toilet. For us this was not acceptable.
 |
| After the failure I had to go to Walmart and find something for a make shift plug because there were not shutoff valves. This plug allowed us to use the water pump again for showers and flush. |
 |
| So the next morning we found a Lowes and landed for repairs before continuing home. I did not have confidence in the plug. |
 |
| I got new parts with shutoff valves. I had a pex cutter in my tool kit. This made a professional repair easier. |
 |
| Perfect, clean fit. |
 |
| A pex cap just in case I find myself in need of a plug in the future. This is now in the on board parts kit. |
 |
| New faucet repair completed. The wife picked it out at Lowes while we were there. |
