Well...I have my parts to sort out my freezing issue. Amazon delaying delivery of a filter/dryer for my recover machine...so doing fluff work.

Anybody notice the foam on the Recirc Door rotting away? I noticed a chunk missing and made the mistake of touching it. Badly oxidized...it crumbled like ashes. Ordered new foam from ComfortAir. It comes in pieces that have to be trimmed down to fit.

Sure looks good to have new foam.

You really like working on that rig, don't you? I sure wish I had your spare time. ;)
 
I wish I had his knowledge and skills.
 
Retirement helps. But leading up to a big trip, when you decided to do all your maintenance when the feels like temperature is 106…. That begs to question my judgement.

Grew up passing wrenches to my Dad…and here I am. Still do most of my own work. Lucky for the traveling public…American Airlines stuck with real licensed mechanics and would not let me put a wrench to anything

I think every hurdle in life give us an opportunity to learn something new. Since getting into RV’ing…it has definitely scratched the itch to learn.

Me thinks most of us on the forum are learning from one another.
 
I'd rather not think about foam. I have a '68 Mustang and part of the refurbishment of it was to replace the decades old "used to be" foam gaskets in the heat/AC box. Fine, as various places sell complete kits for it. So I did all that but didn't install the HVAC assembly at that time. Two years later I finally got around to it. While moving it I put my on the blend door and the foam on it crumbled just like you describe. The foam that I had replaced two years back and then sat on a shelf. I am NOT pleased. How do I know the next replacement foam piece will be any better? Grrr.
