Never want there to be more werk but since this will be a learning experience, and on your dime, whatever! LOL!

The computer fans run on 12V DC. I haven't checked to see how the wires are run, yet. Once closer to doing the deed I'll check. No need to clog the brain and then have to retrain myself before doing something.

You tap into the light switch and put a switch on the fan as I have seen others do. I use battery operated fans in there now but may some day add the 12 vdc fan.

Here are my Camco fans.




These move more air then the blue Valterra ones. The only issue with the Camco is taking the back cover off when not camping. I went to a velro strap and now have no more issues.




The little fan on the inside help too.

We go camping about every other weekend or at lesat we want to if work will let me.... We can get about 3 maybe 4 months out of them. Which is good for a small battery running in 32 to 34 def F temps.

I do take the batteries out each trip. There is no off switch

I know I put batteries in at least once a year but some times 2 worst case 3 which I cannot remember ever doing 3.

They work well enough that the mod to install the muffin fan is way down the list. I did get a large benifit from the fan in the outside vent stack. That one I wish I did years sooner once I found how well that works.

I just bought a 1991 Sunline Solaris. I'm very new to the camper world and I have lots of questions. Hopefully someone can answer some of them. First, I'm not familiar with the LP/electric frindge. When I run the refrigerator using electric there is a spot of condensation directly under the fridge. Is this normal? Second. How many gallons of Antifreeze should I put in the holding tanks?

Hi Jburrell2

Welcome to Sunline Owners Club. Glad you found us and congrats on your new coach.

On our site, up top, there is a "files" tab. Click the tab. In there are manuals for most all appliances. Here is a hot link. Sunline Coach Owner's Club - Sunline Owner's Files

Now to the condensation, Where is the condensation specifically? On the floor inside, in the compartment outside, sweat on the face of the fridge under the door gasket etc?

If we know more where you are seeing the puddle we can help point better to what it might be. It may be as simple as a leaking door seal but again, need more info to help better.

Antifreeze in holding tanks. Normally you do not have to put antifreeze in any large qty in a holding tank. There are 3 tanks on the camper, the Fresh tank for fresh water. This one should not get any anti freeze. The black tank for the toilet. This one may end up getting a little by default when you pour some in the toilet up top. The gray tank. This is the one the sink and shower drains go to. This one ends up getting some by run over when you fill the traps with anti freeze.

All tanks should be drained totally out. If the black or grey end up with some anti freeze then that is OK. I avoid the fresh tank with anti freeze because it takes so darn long to ever flush the stuff out.

Here are a few posts on winterizing. After reading and you still have questions, ask away

Winterizing a T-1950

And here is one from our FAQ forum. Winterizing is the first topic Sunline Articles - “How To” and DIY (Do It Yourself) Links

Hope this helps and good luck with your new camper

John
