Hi all, your help with any of the following would be much appreciated regarding our 2007 Bailey Senator Arizona.
From Day one we have had a very strong taste of chlorine in the water supply to the caravan, so bad that any water for cleaning teeth, drink making etc is done by using bottled water, problem No2, use the shower it starts of fine then the pressure reduces, you can actually see the spray shorten in length, turn it off while you use the soap and the pressure is good once again, only to follow the same pattern and reduce again. Problem No 3, turn the cold water tap on and it will fluctuate from cold to warm to almost hot, then cold again, and so it continues.
Problem No 4, Omni vent, very difficult to open, fine when it is cold but turn the cooker on and you have no chance, obviously the plastic is expanding.
So with these small problems I returned back to the dealer, there answers as follows:
Water smell/taste, your fault you have used contaminated water, or you have dropped your filler pipe on the ground causing contamination, or there has been cross contamination when you have filled up your water carrier, i.e. from an adjacent waste water emptying point, and you now have microscopic bacteria in the system that is causing the problem and is very difficult to eradicate, and is chargeable @ almost £50 per hour by repeated flushing with a water cleaning agent. Your best bet sir is to go to the accessory shop purchase some water cleaner and do it yourself!
Problem No2, low pressure at shower head, that sir is caused by hot water being used, thus is lowering the head of pressure in the tank? There theory more hot water in the tank the greater the pressure.
Problem No3, cold water taps intermittently running warm/hot, Aghh, the problem there sir is that they run the hot/cold water pipes side by side when they build them, then make them inaccessible by building the furniture round them, so there is not much we can do about that, you will have to live with it!
Problem No4, Omni vent, the knack there sir is to back it off a little with the handle then re try, it usually works, it is caused by the top only being lifted on one side, so some times starts of at an angle and will not open.
I'm still stunned into silence and preparing myself for round 2, or am I being too picky and expecting too much for the best part of £15 grand? Your thoughts, and what actions you would take would be much appreciated.
