  1. <p>Hi there, yes we've had problems with low water pressure in our 2015 Elite II. Especially utilizing the fresh water pump. We also experience, when taking a shower and pushing the button on the shower wand to stop the water flow that the cold water pressure overrides the hot so when you turn the water back on you get a dose of cold water for the first few seconds. OTT has sent me a replacement pump, which helped a little with the low pressure. I've come to the conclusion that I might have a slight air leak at one of the fittings between the tank and the pump. I just haven't had a chance to look into it yet. </p>
  2. That's great news, sounds like an easy fix. I'll bet the cause of my low pressure is the same, thanks for sharing.
  3. Thank you for the post of your modification, that's a clever way of increasing your pressure, if only intermittently. The flow rate from my shower was similar to yours. After pump replacement I experienced a slight improvement. One observation I think is worth noting is our pumps are placed above the level of the fresh water tank. This I think would increase the possibility of drawing in air from a bad connection on the suction side of the pump. Also every fitting, elbow, and valve between the tank and pump may have a greater impact on performance than fittings on the pressure side. Thanks, Joel
  4. Hi there, We also experience poor pressure from the shower. After checking for voltage drop at the pump, checked the valves and filter screen for obstruction, OTT sent me a replacement pump which before installing I benched tested along with the original pump, timing the GPM. Both pumps performed the same and within rated capicity. After installing the new pump it helped a little but not much. I too was wondering if this was normal. Please pass along anything you find that inproves the performance, thanks. Joel&kim Austin Tx, 2015 Oliver legacy elite II
  5. New member here, my name is Joel Stearns and we have put our name in the hopper for a Legacy II. Our anticipated pick up date is June 15 2015. We are coming from a Casita which will soon be for sale. Looking forward to learning all I can from the depth of knowledge from the community.
