So I had to clean the calcium out of the water control valve to get it to work well. Mine was very slow to fill. Didn't have to replace any parts on mine

Gene, you might want to think about getting the green and white stripe fresh water tank over flow hose off of the rear bulkhead and put it through the floor in front of blue accumulator tank.  The fresh tank sloshes water out and onto the bulkhead keeping it wet when driving.  Through the floor helps prolong life of the bulkhead.

Is that the large (~1.5"?) hose that I was calling a vent line?  If so, that is a great idea.  My next concern was what happens if the auto cutoff doesn't work.  Who knows the condition of the line/how well it is attached I was imaging the thing breaking and dumping a lot of water.  But I do have a slight concern about critters building a next and blocking the hose if just left open out the bottom.

Ah.  Good to know.  Thanks.

The stock tank readout is not reading.  So it looks like a SeeLevel system will be added to the upcoming list.  The water pump is not turning on either but the light doesn't turn on either so that may be the latching relay.

Could also be the manual reset breaker that feeds it. That breaker is hid behind the white safety shield in the basement.

The 2 small radiators in the wet bay are connected to the aqua hot and the thermacouple is for the thermostat that tells them when they should turn on.
