Re: [SilverStreak] Washer

Vincent,
    I don't know what size  trailer your trailer is. I  have a 72 Continental
Rocket Deluxe that's 28' feet long.  I also bought a Haier washing machine the
same size as yours.  I simply put it next to the stove in my kitchen. There is
a flip up shelf behind it that I bind it to when I'm traveling. I just put the
washer next to the sink and hook it up when I do laundry.  I didn't
permanently install it. I've sometimes thought it would fit inside one of the
two closets in my rear bathroom, like on the side where the toilet is. It
would seem to hook up to the plumbing in that area.  I'm not sure if the
closet is wide enough to accept it though.  I'd be interested in knowing what
you do.  My fridge is nowhere near any plumbing so I was surprised you were
considering that side of the trailer if yours is like mine.   It will be
interesting to hear what you decide.

  Hello fellow SS'rs,
  I just bought a Haier clothes washer for my 72 continental.  My SS is my
home so, I am trying to get it all domestic.  This washer is 17" by 17", by 30"
tall.  I am thinking to put it in my kitchen closset.  Do you think it is a
good idea to pull out the fridge, then cut a hole in the closset wall to get
it in?  How hard is it to pull the fridge out?
  My hat is off, to all of you who do your own plumbing work!  I had my pex
put in by Loveland RV in Colorado for $3700.00 total.  And it works great.  I
found out that you don't need to run the water pump, when your hooked to the
"city water".
  I have made a few modifications to my trailer that you all might be interested
in:
  -Took out the wooden box TV caddy, and replaced w/swingarm, and flat screen   tv.
  -Took out the door side bed,in bedroom, and replaced w/a fold out bench-bed/settie
  -put in a wood floor in the bedroom
  The magnetts worked great on my hubcaps, so don't you guys worry about that.
And, I am happy to report, that when I took all the food out of my trailer, I   
haven't caught a single mouse in my traps.
