Help - Leak trouble shooting
I awoke to a wet spot on the floor of my 27' 1984 Sovereign. The leak is right between the sink and bathroom area, roughly in the middle of the trailer. The water is not coming from above and it hasn't rained in a week. Any ideas about what is causing this.

It is probably sewer vent on the roof. Leaks travel between the inner and outer skins. Well has it been there since it rained or are you saying it is a plumbing leak? You checked the roof vents?

What's this about a sewer vent? We are newbies and have just hooked with the sewer line to a septic system at an RV park. Could I have done something wrong by simply
hooking up the sewer line to the septic and not opening some vent?

Airuker I saw you tried to PM me. My mailbox is full. They must have reduced the quota. I am erasing stuff and it is still full.
