Has anyone had a problrm with their Hyro-Hot unit leaking fluid from the bottom. It is coming out where the exhaust pipe is under the coach, Can't find any loose fittings anywhere on the unit itself.

My leak came from the plastic piece connected to the bottom of the tank where the drain plug and valve

are located directly below where you replace the nozzle, easy fix. A friend had a cracked tank, and

replaced the entire unit.

What kind of fluid? The pink antifreeze, or is it diesel fuel?
If antifreeze, then, as suggested by others, it's probably the plastic fitting that goes in the tank for the drain plug. They crack at the base and it's difficult to see the break.
Be careful probing around, cause if you break the plastic fitting then you will dump all of the antifreeze.
If that's it, then replace with a brass fitting and brass pipe (nipple)to eliminate all of the plastic stuff. Parts at Lowes/Home Depot.

Email off line if you would like ideas, suggestions, other help..
If it's diesel fuel then it's probably in the burner, or lines leading to the burner.
