Rummaging around in the coach yesterday, ferreting (ferrets are weasels) out the electrical system, I noticed an piece of smaller diameter hose like that on the furnace.

Of course it was covered in duck tape.

Where is the hose (duct?) to the bath supposed to run?

Suggested replacements (it's a lot ratty).

I'm done with the critter references today.

Thanks for the help.

If it's routed like the one on my Palm Beach, it runs to the rear of the coach, across the back, then back to the bath module. Of course, this pretty much ensures little to no heat actually reaching the shower module!

I'm not aware of any alternatives to this arrangement other than getting rid of this duct, but someone may have designed a better solution.

Yea, that thing is worthless. Has to travel too far. I just do a lot of dancing when showering in the GMC during the winter. Don't need a lot of water in January for a shower. Leave the door open, that does help and insulate real good under the sink.
