1989 regency, there is a black box in the water pump compartment that has 2 hoses to it, some wires and a flexible duct. Whenever the coach 12v power on I can hear it run. Does any know what it is or how to turn it off
Thanks
Glenn

That may be a water fed heater that gets its water from the main engine and the switch may be on dash near your radio, or maybe over the entry door. As you know Barth did not make all units alike, and you may need someone to stand near this box while you work switches. I think you will find the switch on the dash panel.

I wish you well.

We have ENJOYED our unit a mere 25 months, and I must ADMIT, I learn something about it nearly everyday, or it could be that my MEMORY is failing and I ACUTALLY FORGOT WHAT I HAD LEARNED THE DAY BEFORE. ron, don't you say a word....or I will quit sending you the dirty stories.

Fun is good though.

We have two motoraided heaters in our little 28 footer. One under the sofa and one under a bed. When we did out Lake Superior Circle tour on July 2nd of 2001 it was 40 deg and flurries. But we were toasty with our motoraids. This is Nyes Campground near Marathon, ON and it was C O L D. (see date on photo)

Bingo, switch was an ivory wall type mounted over the drivers seat and it matched the light switch next to it. Next question, what is the switch over the entrance door with a red indicator light?

That switch is the same as mine, and it controls the other heater in the water compartment to keep the tank and pipes from freezing. You turn it on and RED lite lights, but be aware heater will probably not come on until the outside temp is near or below freezing. You can turn it on and check, but I think you will find I am correct. The RED lite just tells you that you have ARMED the heater to work when temp gets cold enough.

I feel I am correct in the above, but since Barth did things MANY ways, I may not have answered your question.

Dale, that option just makes me want your coach more...dream, dream, dream,

------------------

The switch over the door with red light is for the Elect heater in water comp. It a 110 volts heater that come on at temp of 38 degrees:If you have a switch in Bathroom like this switch it should be for the hot water heater and 110 volts too:
