    Wanted to reach out to say thanks for this video. My daughter bought us a propane fire pit for Christmas and I remembered watching this video so immediately bought all the parts and installed it. Your instructions made it a super easy install. Went camping for a few days and ran the pit from the trailer. One of my favorite upgrades so far.

    Thanks for taking the time to show your accessories. Our Casita is 22 this year, and very similar to the new ones. We do carry wheel chocks in case we have to park on a slope. Also wood blocks to put under the levelling jacks and tongue jack when setting up on uneven ground. On the other hand, we never used a water filter or surge protection. I can't remember having any problems with water or power in campgrounds and trailer parks. Standard quality sewer lines work just fine, lasting for years. The sewer line support seems a waste of money, too. The Casita sewer line connection is so close to the ground that there is rarely enough room under the drain line to fit in any kind of support that creates a constant slope. We do have a solar panel. The panel acts as a battery maintainer and helps us keep the lights on when dry camping.

    • @CasitaRvLife
      @CasitaRvLife 10 днів тому

      That sounds great that you have never had any issues. We have lost a power convertor due to campground power. Not only once but twice. I have camped at remote campground where my water filter was brown after staying there. We do camp year round and have over 90,000 miles on our trailer now. I have camped at campground that require sewer supports. I just setup the same way at all campgrounds now just to be safe. We use the solar for the same reason. Thanks for you information and happy camping.

    Real dumb question- I thought the solar port option on the Casita was a direct connection for my portable solar panels to the Casita battery, regardless of whether it’s lead acid, AMG, or lithium? Is that incorrect? I'm an old 5th wheel guy, but am picking up my new Liberty in February.

    • @CasitaRvLife
      @CasitaRvLife 23 дні тому

      There are no dumb questions when it comes to RV's. I installed my own solar connector on my Casita. I did not buy the one installed by Casita. I talked to Casita about the Solar connector they install and they stated it was connected to the battery. The portable solar panel needs to have a solar controller built in. The solar controller is where you select what kind charge you want and what kind of battery you have. Casita does sell the portable Renogy solar panels that you can buy when you pick up your trailer but the same panel is a lot cheaper on Amazon. Here is a link to the panel. amzn.to/3ZA4f99

    • @CasitaRvLife
      @CasitaRvLife Місяць тому

      If you can hear the furnace clicking it is trying to light. If it never lights it is not getting gas to the burner. If you have propane in your tanks and the valves are open then the internal gas valve is not opening. You need to have the system check by a certified technician.

      I have used two different ways to mount the screen. Now I use the suction mount that came with the camera. I like it and it does not interfere with my field of view because I mount it at dash level. They also sell a mount to attach the camera to the rear view mirror. I used it initially but prefer the suction mount.

  • @javacup912
    @javacup912 2 місяці тому

    Drilling the head off the rivets is very important for one reason. You don't want to drill through the hole again, and oversize the hole, which would require a larger diameter rivet to make a sound installation. Coming from the aircraft industry experience, I apply this rule for every rivet, regardless of the equipment. In the case of an oversize hole in the Casita, it would not only be weak rivet, though the silicone would seal the hole, the strength would not be there. Enjoying your videos.
