Hydro Hot leaking fuel from tailpipe

Yahoo Message Number: 100687
Our Hydro Hot is leaking fuel from the tailpipe. And been smoking probably from the excess fuel. We are in Bellingham WA heading towards Alaska any suggestions on a service person or a fix ?

John, are you sure it's fuel and not coolant?

I don't know anyone in Bellingham who can work on it.  We spend two weeks there every summer.  Infinity Coach in Sumner, WA is really good with Hydro-Hot but they are about 200 miles south of you.  If you call them they may know someone in the Bellingham/Mt Vernon area who could work on it.  They are at Infinity Coach | Contact Us

If you go to the aqua-hot web site, you'll be able to locate a service center near you.

Larry I just checked again. You're right It might be coolant.  The reservoir is empty . So do you have any idea what it might be?

Thanks, John

John, there isn't anyone in Belliingham that I would take my coach to. You might give Brazel's a call and see who they recommend. They are in Centralia, back down south a piece.https://www.brazelsrv.com/

Not sure what it is,  but I would call the manufacturer.  I have the Hurricane unit made by ITR located in Washington(800-993-4402).

Our coach will be 12 years old in September and I have had a few issues with the Hydro-hot.  The plastic

drain tube and fitting is one that everyone will see fail and cause leaks.
There's another fitting on the left end that fails, too.  The over flow clear hose that connects to the overflow or expansion tank needs to be replaced every 5 years or so has been my experience.  Fuel lines in side the unit to the burner need

replacing,  And water lines to the different circulation pumps should be inspected annually when the units

burn chamber is cleaned and the fuel spray nozzle replaced.  TWI 2004 Intrigue 11731

Amen to that.  Get it replaced with a brass fitting.
