I’m pretty sure we did around 60%. We didn’t want to darken the rv too much during the day! Hope this helps

Thank you for watching and we are glad your enjoyed! The desk is still holding up well! We have had plants, an ice machine, and various other items on the desk and there have been essentially no issues or concerns. We do not recommend this but there have been only a few times where we have had to step on the desk as a step (when the bed was lowered) and it held up just fine. Again, this was just a few times and we do not regularly use it as a step. We are very happy with the desk!

@@WeLiveFreeRV great to hear, thank you!

Congratulations and welcome to the RV community! We have a Grand Design Momentum 397 TH (Toy Hauler) that is about 44 feet long.

@@WeLiveFreeRVI’m hoping to purchase something very similar in the next month. I’ve worked remotely since 2009 and finally able to start this venture. How limited are you on the places you can venture?

@danvanrider5923. That is a tough question to answer. We have never been unable to visit a location (or destination). In that case we have been great. We have been unable to fit in specific campgrounds that at those destinations. For example our rig is way too big for most national park, state park etc rv campgrounds (some exceptions). It has never stopped the fun and joy of traveling with our house everywhere. It just means sometimes we have to drive a little further each day when exploring. For example: you can find campgrounds in Yellowstone national park to stay in but we don’t necessarily fit (ie built for 30ft campers or smaller). So we stayed outside the park, which did add to our daily driving around by 30-45 Minutes each way. I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more information/ explanation.

Good evening! The water was sparkly clear and tasted great. We recently just broke our’s (Jeff’s fault) we are currently working on a different setup but it was great while it lasted lol. The true hardest part of this was making sure everything was watertight. Good luck and happy modding! Very respectfully, Jeff and Amanda

We are glad this was helpful to you. Let us know how the repairs hold up. Safe travels.

That’s correct! It was absolutely worth it!

Hey Paula, You are spot on, we actually ended up redoing the whole system to pex. We just haven’t had a chance to make a video on it! Keep the feedback coming! Very respectfully, Jeff and Amanda

Good afternoon Ginger Flowers, Thank you for your kind and respectful feedback. We try to document the whole process so people understand the process. We hope you have a great day. Stay Classy. Very respectfully, Jeff

Thank you so much! It was exciting for sure! It was definitely like traveling through time!

I’ll be honest we got so busy we didn’t reach out. We have towed about 15000 miles since and had 0 issues!

Really! When you say behind the wall are you saying behind the fiberglass?

@@WeLiveFreeRV Yes

That’s awesome! I wish I’d have thought about that. Did you have any separation between your fiberglass and the wall behind it? I’m sure the slide ski is seated nicely but I wonder how the ridge of the slide ski impacts that. You should do a video about it! Thank you for sharing! It helps the rv community grow! Very respectfully, Jeff and Amanda

@@WeLiveFreeRV yes there is a small gap for it to slide into.

We are glad to help! Thank you for watching.

Thank you for watching. We are happy you tuned in to watch! Can you believe that most of these videos were shot using our iPhones? Crazy!

Thank you for watching. We are glad this worked out for you. If you have any suggestions or recommendations, just let us know.

Thank you for watching! We are glad you enjoyed it.

Good afternoon! We’re glad you enjoyed the project! Yes we did lose the dump vents but our rig stays plenty cool! Even in the 100+ Texas summers. We don’t miss the dump vents at all. We are getting great circulation through the racetrack ductwork! We hope this helps! Very respectfully, Jeff and Amanda

@@WeLiveFreeRV Thanks for the reply. I am getting used to it and it does work great. I guess I just miss the initial cool air dump when you first walk into a hot rv. Keep up the good work!

Good evening! Ductless is a challenge. We are not specifically aware of any solution for that. We don't think this will help it get quieter but you can check to make sure you don't have any gaps and seal them with HVAC tape. It can make it more efficient. Sorry!

Good morning, We initially had an issue with a small leak but that was our error with pipe tape. After that no issues from this system. The fittings were all brass to brass. Meaning inside the plastic housing were brass connection points.

Was this done for this video? Cause I’m replacing mine this week and need to know!

Hey Jeanie! Sorry for the delayed response. We didn't remove the little plastic buttons, we haven't had any issues on our end. As for the slide skis we absolutely had to replace ours. They were in bad shape.

@@WeLiveFreeRV I didnt say remove the plastic buttons from inside the channel, disconnect the rail/rack from the slide. When you jack up the slide the way you did you are moving to entire rack and pinion, the two arms that connect to the slide and possibly bending or tweaking the metal that secures the rack and pinion to the underside. Glad you dont have issues. If you place excessive pressure against the alignment buttons you will have future issues, broken gear packs are the usual result. I've been repairing RV's for 35 years. But, what do I know, just trying to help

Good afternoon @betterthanideserve76, Thank you again for clarifying! We weren’t questioning you at all! We love getting feedback like this as it makes the entire community better. We wish you the absolute best and hope you continue to contribute your 35 years of experience and knowledge! We hope you are doing well! Stay safe! Very respectfully, Jeff and Amanda

We used the BlueBonnet websites and trail maps to help us find the best locations. www.bluebonnettrail.org/trailmap Maybe start with this site and you can find some! Thank you for watching the video. We hope you enjoyed it and are able to find your own flowers soon!

@@WeLiveFreeRV Love your videos. Thank you!

Thank you for the compliment and adding that tip for future installers! We didn’t remove any factory parts. Another 30k miles and it’s going great! Very respectfully, Jeff and Amanda

We went to a local tint shop in Texas and ,with the help of the experts in the shop, we selected a commercial grade tint and NOT nano ceramic even though nano ceramic is popular for cars and RVs. There were also many different options for the percentage of tint (uv protection) you can pick depending on your needs. As far as the specific brand, we are not quite sure what the dealer used, but they went through their products with us and recommended commercial grade.

We are so glad this was helpful to you. Let us know how this works out for you and if you would recommend any changes or differences!

Hey @dpkealy. Simply put clean and tasty, and we’ve been at some places that the water wasn’t the best (sulfur smell, earthy smell etc)!

Glad we could help! And we appreciate your support. Hope everything works out well for you.

Thank you. It would be nice to know how Jeff broke the system so we know what to avoid. Thank you

Good evening! You absolutely can add shut-off valves. Depending on parts availability you may have to run the shut-off valves to the pex lines vice your filter setup! Good luck!

@@WeLiveFreeRV thanks for getting back to me

Good morning! We're sorry to hear that you are having troubles when it rains! For clarity we are definitely not RV repair experts in any way but here's what we would check. 1) check the upper lip of the slide ski on the outside of your slide (minute 6:17 in video). There should be a bead of caulking along the top entirety of that black strip. Pro tip: caulk over the screw heads as well 2) look along the bottom edge of the slide ski (5:28 in video) even a very small crack can let water in. 3) check the caulking around any doors (ie outside tv spot on slide), windows, etc. If you can't find the culprit using the above three, you can try gently pulling up the carpet/ flooring (not sub floor) of the slide to try and chase down the point of origin. Is there any damage to the walls inside underneath the windows (wallpaper wrinkles, peeling, squishy parts)? Also I'd suggest getting a ladder and getting on the roof and checking all of slide seals (big flaps the move when you open/close the slide). Look for wear and tear and make sure they are completely folded out and flat against the slide when the slide is out. (A great time to get some slide seal conditioner and treat them as well!) Lastly, it's very important you dry the wet areas. A good house dehumidifier will do wonders.to help! We hope this helps! Feel free to email us if you have any questions or shoot us some photos and we will take a look! [email protected] Again very sorry this is happening to you and good luck. Very respectfully, Jeff and Amanda
