AVION Travel Trailers

Latest update on the tank-type water heater: When the Suburban 6255AEB Water Heater arrived, I didn't realize the service door was too small to cover the existing hole. I sent it back to Amazon. I contacted United RV in Dallas. They pointed me to the Suburban RV Water Heater SAW6DE. This is actually...

Glad you have a ventilation strategy. I dealt with a lot of condensation and mold issues in homes during my 2nd career. Some things I never forget.

When I was replacing the battery leads to the trailer during restoration, I don't recall seeing a path for the converter to charge the battery. Also, I distinctly remember a note in the Avion manual that damage could occur if th...
