Chuck,
Have you looked at this? It may or may not work for you.
I carry one around with me to fix the inevitable failure of the original latch.

There was no desiccant bag in mine. Maybe it had been apart before??
The desiccant bag would have been a good idea. Wish I had thought of that before it was sealed up and reinstalled.

Hi Lance,
Any idea how much weight the Armor Flex adds to the coach.
As you know, I have to count every pound.

Hi Lance,
For some reason that rain we had at Mountain Glen RV park got in my camera. Check out the picture. It was dry before that.
Took it apart and let it set for several days inside in the house in the AC to dry out. Reassembled and put sealer around the outside gasket line and edge of glass. Hopefully it will stay sealed.

I ran across this guy several years ago at the Tampa RV show. I don't know if he is still in business or not. He was selling his removal service as well as a DIY kit of the stripping solution he uses.

Hi Lance,
As I recall, I chased the original part number and came up with the force. I changed mine out because it was too long, allowing the door to swing into my awning hardware and scratch the door when the awning was extending. Seems like austinhardware.com did not have a 14 inch/25 lb model available so I found one on Amazon. The 25 lb version works well.
Regards, Kevin

I replaced mine with the one linked below from Amazon. They are available in various lengths.

I had this same problem on my last trip. I'm curious to see what solutions other people have come up with.

General Discussion / Re: Roof A/C
« on: May 03, 2022, 02:50:21 pm »Can I assume the Houghton is the A3800? My next question is: The Dometic Brisk II Rooftop Air Conditioner, 13,500 BTU - Polar White (B57915.XX1C0) is picked the quietest AC on the web and the Houghton is not even listed in the top 10. The Brisk is only 1.7 inches taller and 13 inches shorter than the penquin ii. Just asking.
The one's I have are RP-AC3400. The "RP" is RecPro's number add in to the Houghton AC3400 model number. The AC3400 profile is 4 and a half inches lower than the AC3800 and is lower than the Penguin by an inch or so.

Definitely recommend the Houghton unit from RecPro. They are very, very quiet compared to the Dometic units. You can go to RecPro direct or through Amazon. (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B089N826FY/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_7?smid=A1V7TJOE3FVDYM&psc=1).
I replaced both of my Dometic's with these heat pump units.

Thanks Larry,
So far I see one attachment with 4 pictures that show plumbing around the pump and storage tank.

You are correct in your understanding of the design. Two rubber flaps is all that covers the slot, doesn't do much to keep the cold out.
The old design seems much better.

Ron,
The wall next to the fitting is part of the slide and moves so I would have to rig up some sort of sliding mount.
