Anyone know what runs under floor between shower and bathroom sink?
I thought it all ran along wall, but have a wet carpet right between the two, in the hall.
Not positive, could be drain, as I left shower running about 15 minutes while helping another camper set up last weekend.
Lucky it was not spraying out of stall.

I think that the water line loops around the back and to the front for the shower. Don't think that Airstream took any of the lines under the floor. Could also be your drain. Noticed the last time I was out mine was leaking some, but only on the outside. Might be a good time to take a look at the back side of your shower valve and see if any water is getting out that way!
Good luck.

klattu,
I recently had the opportunity to see what the feed and drain lines are located and I would suspect it was shower overspray. The lines run around the interior perimeter (as Chris mentioned)...the drain drops straight down to the trap through a hole in the floor....if the drain leaked you would see it dripping on the ground...not in the hallway. |

I know there is a water line that runs behind the shower along the wall, i had that line leak on me before. If the only place the floor is wet is in front of the shower i would bet its overspray or you have a hole in the bottom of the shower. If it was a major water leak you should see water leaking underneath. |

I think was the shower valve.
I found a horrorable mess one morning as the shower was almost full, about to overflow from a tiny leak from valve on the inside of shower.
We were camping at a place without sewer hook ups.
Was leaking behind too.
Ripped all that stuff out.
Now have a nice regular house type shower head and tub fill.
Had to extend waterline up thru closet base to get shower head up high enough, but works great.
Is getting tough to find brass finish now, must be going out of style. |

| I had a similar problem in my 345. It was also leaking outside - did yours? It turned out to be a broken "Y" fitting that was located under an access plate in the floor. The plate is accessable by pulling the carpet loose in the corner that adjoins the outside shower wall on the drain side and at the bottom left of the closet. I didn't know it was there until a long time Airstream employee told me. Even with the access plate off, it was a challenge to get to. Instead of removing the shower which Airstream reccomended, I used a rubber pipe coupler and two band clamps quite successfully. |

We also had a wet floor between the shower and sink in our 345. It is a small leak from where the water goes into the toilet. We have not figured out how to access it without pulling the toilet any ideas?? |

I had the same problem and had to pull the toilet. Turned out to be a cracked fitting where thek spray hose connected. |

First shut off the water. Then disconnect the water line. Some water will leak out anyway.
Then there are two nuts to remove that hold the toilet base to the ring on the floor. Unfortunately, they are usually hard to get at and you will need patience. One of mine was under the foot pedal, and the other is in the rear of the toilet.
Lots of FUN!!! |
