Aqua hot exhaust pipe

[Jenny Woods]

Hello all! So I drove my 2006 Monaco Executive down to Ocala Florida and in the way I noticed a pipe loose, I bungeed it till my destination and then it completely fell off. I need to get it fixed before I run my aqua hot and have a carbon monoxide issue. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance your all so helpful!

Any auto muffler ship can fabricate what you need.  They just have to want to work on an RV that is big.

Based on all the clamps, it’s been replaced before…should make it easier to replace again. Use the electric unit you fabricate a new one.

Sorry what do you mean use the electric unit you fabricate a new one? Do you mean use the old pipe that fell off to fabricate a new one? I am not a welder nor mechanic 🥹 but could use the advice to head me in the right direction. Thank you Ivy 

Thanks David for posting the downloads that will be helpful for many things! Also I’ll look in the area for a muffler company that could accommodate my rig!

Maybe all you need is a muffler clamp strap.  See link as an example.

I think it will need to be welded on at opening? Do you know a muffler person in Florida?

[Jenny Woods]

Thanks Bill

I think he means to use the electric mode to heat the boiler instead of the diesel mode.

No. The Aqua Hot exhaust does not weld onto the exit pipe.  It slips in and then clamps.  I used two stainless steel hangers from Summit Racing to secure mine.  The factory hangers were not very sturdy.

His name is Steve "AquaMan" out of central Florida 908-875-6375. OR https://ocalahitch.com/  Hitching Post Ocala Both get high praise.  Should be able to help you or at least direct you to a shop they use for pipe work.

Steel exhaust flex pipe is what I used when mine fell off going down the road. But mine was gone gone. You can still fix yours.

If you're in the Ocala area just take it down to Lazydays in The Villages.  That used to be a Monaco Service Center and they still have many of the old Monaco technicians there.  I have been very pleased with all the work I have had them do for me, and without trying to up-sell me additional repairs.

Hitching Post of Ocala is an Aqua-Hot service center only. They do not do exhaust pipes or removal and installation of old/new Aqua-Hot units. I use them for Aqua-Hot service every year.

When I needed an entire new exhaust pipe on my Windsor, I took it to a Auto Repair shop in Bunnell FL where they fabricated a new exhaust pipe, installed new clamps and secured the fiberglass insulation to the new pipe.
