Frozen pipes
MAYBE-
i AM not following but you need 2 valves in the rear that I just
replaced on mine with ball valves to run the chassis heaters and the
hot water heater

constant on to recirc the water thru the hot water heater in the
summer and the other to turn on the other valve for the kick heaters

with the winter setting in mine at 20degrees it was a little cool in
the back untill i turned on the aux water pump then all was good

on the fc it has another valve up ft under the coach for its driver
heat and also factory it has 2 sets of 2 manual screw in valves like
at your house if you blow a line or its real hot to block off the flow
