Nice, à la Westfalia layout. I had one in 1977/85 and the current one. I assume yours is 144” wheel base.

How do you heat your Isotemp, by engine coolant and diesel furnace or only electric?
Why 25-gal fresh but only 7-gal gray?
Do you have cassette toilet?

Good luck.

Thanks for the response. The Isotherm 130 is a 12V electric refrigerator. The toilet is a Porta-Potti which I should have listed (that's never been used, actually) and this Sportsmobile plan has the 23 gallon fresh water tank under the gancho seat, in between the inverter and the diesel heater and water heater.. The gray water is in a small 7 gallon tank under the sink and there's an electric switch on the driver's seat to empty it at an appropriate location.

I misread Isotherm as Isotemp and asume Isotemp water heater. What kind of water heater do you have, you stated "HWU electric or diesel", is my assumption correct a Hot Water Unit/Utility?
 
The water heater is dual operation both Diesel and 110V (with it's own 20A circuit breaker,
Please see attached sheet and photos of the diesel heater, the (on demand) water heater, water tank, etc.
Thanks for asking

You said the grey under sink tank has a valve to dump at the "appropriate location". Does it have a hose on it to get to a dump station or is it Euro style drive over dump, which doesn't work well in the US?
 
Grey water tank under the sink has an overflow as shown. The discharge of the grey water is switched from the side of the drivers seat and there is a coupling at the discharge brass outlet that could have a threaded PVC hose connection installed. There is a short hose included in the sale that I used to use....
Thanks

I am confused; on the control panel I can see the Espar DigiMax temperature controller which can control Eberspacher/Espar Airtronics heaters but is not compatible with Eberspacher/Espar Hydronics heater such as your listed D5. Base on your pictures and the write-up my conclusion is that you have:

- Comfort systems based on D5 Hydronic heater to heat water and air controlled by on/off D5 furnace switch and high/low fan switch, no thermostat likely.

- and likely D2 Airtronics as an independent air heater.

This is a good combination; I have a similar one: D2 Airtronics and D5 Hydronics/Isotemp for water heating only.

I could be wrong in my conclusion but I am certain on one point that DigiMAx is not compatible with Hydronics D5.
 
Oops
Sorry, I got that wrong. This information is right out of my Sportsmobile owners binder

These two of files do not explain the DigiMax connection to D5 unless it is for diagnosis only if it works that way. Have you used this camper?
