RV faucet keeps dripping???

[Jim Smith]

My RV faucet keeps dripping even though I am winterized. All the power is off , pump is off and the faucet is shut off. Has anybody had this type of issue??

Is is still connected to the house water system? If so, it is highly recommended to use a pressure reducer. I know that from experience .

Could faucet be completely open instead of completely closed? Seems weird to me.

Turn the valves off under the sink and in the spring when you dewinterize get a faucet repair kid from an RV store for your particular brand of faucet.

That is a wierd one if there is no preasure on the system. My Avion has Delta sink fixtures and I was able to get one and a spare ball cartridge from Lowes that fixed my slow dripping sink.

As long as you have RV antifreeze in the system, and the faucet works as normal during camping season it won't hurt anything.



When I winterize my RV I always leave all taps completely open (as wel as all the drains at the bottom of the RV) after I run RV antifreeze through the entire system.



You've got water trapped somewhere between air bubbles somewhere near that faucet. Turn on the pump to run more RV antifreeze through that faucet to make sure you're ok.

If you mean like most , winterized , filled with antifreeze , I would think that whats happening is that the seals are hard from maybe time and cold , so are not sealing .
I have an 85 Airstream and live yr round , and have not got away from the winters yet , maybe next yr.
My system allows me to open some valves and completely drain system [ except for water filter , witch I remove ] and then just need to keep the drain / waste plumping from freezing .
With out knowing your trailer , I do not know if you can drain system , then you also do not need to flush when the season starts again , or spend $$$ in the 1st place .
New seals .
