    The fresh tank has never been filled (AFAIK); been on city water during all three months it's been used.



    This came up at the campfire this morning, might try it. However since the Nautilus valves haven't changed position since I set them up for city water three months ago, how does the system start leaking and then stop leaking there? And again, no sign of leaking anywhere in the utility space, just the water on top of the gray tank but no indication of how it got there. No water on the little raised floor above the tank (where the electricals are attached), no dripping from any pipes or drains, nothing.

    A real puzzler.
    Don't rule out an Artesian well forming in the basement.

    Good Luck finding the source.

    Hitch area? Maybe you're getting wind driven moisture when in motion?

    Grasping at straws here.

    OP says the unit has been on the same site for over two weeks.

    Hope it doesn't turn out to be a rain water issue. Then this thread will have to be moved again.

    I don't think I do, unless I've got that problem AND the indicator panel is indicating it's empty while it's full.

    Trailer has now been moved twice since this incident, back on city water at each new site. Not a drop appeared under the trailer where I had to drill a hole to drain the gallons on top of the Coroplast.

    Each move had me using the black tank sprayer, as I had done the day before the incident and I was almost hoping that would be the problem. I open the dump valve, turn on water supply to the sprayer, and let it run for ages, 'til the water coming out looks drinkable. Not a drop leaked, twice.

    I've filled the black and both gray tanks to (indicated) full capacity and drained them, even though when this was reported to me the tanks were less than 1/3 full. Not a drop.

    I've crawled further into the utility space and wiggled stuff around while water pressure was on. Not a drop.

    How does something leak so massively, and then stop leaking? I'm weeks from being able to have a dealer look at it, but (touch wood) it doesn't matter except that it's keeping me up at nights wondering what the hell happened.

    Did you ever get this solved?

    Not explained yet. The trailer went to the dealer, where due to a staff problem it sat for over six weeks without anything being done. We retrieved the trailer last week to use it, and it's going back in a couple of weeks when they have promised to to the work quickly.

    However I don't have high hopes... the problem didn't recur in weeks of using it after the event occurred. While we didn't get rain anywhere nearly as heavy as the Mississippi monsoon we had when this occurred - that was the heaviest rain I've ever seen in my life - we did get decent rainfalls a few times without any water appearing where it shouldn't be. I've checked the plumbing to death, including while briefly boosting regulator pressure from its usual 45lbs up to 55lbs on the theory that maybe something surged through the regulator, but not found any leaking.

    So it's a mystery. If the dealer finds something I'll post the information in the thread.

    We JUST bought out 320mks and are having the same problem! Filled with gallons of water in 3 days hooked to city water. Started pouring out when tipped up to hook up to tow. Did you find out what the leak was? My husband is going to pull off the bottom and look but curious if you found a common problem they have
