          Just took a shower in our new to us 2018 Forest River TT. The shower drains really slow and stars to build up in the shower pan. Any ideas how to fix this?

              First, check your drain cover. If it has a screw in the center, remove it. Underneath you’ll see a cross bar that often collects hair and debris. Cleaning that out usually clears things up.

              If that doesn’t solve it, try a non-caustic drain cleaner. Products like Drano or Liquid-Plumr are safe options, and you can usually find them at Walmart. They’re effective without risking damage to the plumbing.

              I wouldn’t use a hair snake, though, as many RVs use a Hepvo waterless trap instead of a traditional P-trap, and a snake can damage it.
