How can I rearrange the plumbing

Post by SergioB »

Hi
So I want to reroute the plumbing on my 34v to a 34w kind. I plan to have a bed where the bathroom is and then bunk beds on one side and the bathroom just in front. How hard will it be? Is it feasible? Ideas?
Thank you

I would try to mimic an existing layout for a 34 ft. trailer. Working with an established plumbing strategy is significantly easier that going all-new.

The drain plumbing will be your biggest challenge. It is located between the floor and belly pan. There is a lot of complexity below the floor. Things like cross-members and belly pan can generate a whole new category of expletives.

You need to get strategic and take a 20,000 foot look at your trailer's cross-member, tank location, belly pan, etc. layout. Removing the belly pan will be your first reality check.

I’ve read your reply several times trying to find the “it’s easy, don’t worry!” But still nothing… Well we are still waiting for our camper to arrive so all these plans are just dreams that will for sure change when we actually enter our Avion.
Thanks Bob

It's ok, I had similar thoughts when I first got my Avion.
