I have learned that leaving the incandescent light bulb in the overhead oven hood on too long will burn a hole in the plastic cover.

Note to self: Replace oven light with an LED at earliest opportunity.

Any one know who makes the hoods? I need a new plastic cover.

We are amazed how much light we have with all of the LEDs on. Most are 2 segment fixtures where the rocker switch gives 1 segment or both. Glad I ordered the LED package. The fixtures over the bed are plenty for us. Wishing now that I had put a TV antenna on top and installed the outside shower fixture. Not so sure yet how much we will use the outside propane connection.

Anyway, the new pump came today and is now installed. Works well. Much quieter. This one is a Shurflow and the defective one was made by Artis Products.

We also have the door gap problem. Will have to return to Canada soon to get it fixed.

Hope you don't have to travel too far. If the gap is minor, the rubber seal around the door can be bolstered a bit with some round foam seal that most hardware stores would carry. The crew at Escape used some of it in a few spots around my door and it seemed to work ok. It's about 1/2 -3/4 inch in diameter and looks like a black rope. Just tear off whatever length is needed and tuck behind the rubber seal. It felt like a band aid approach in some ways but it worked fine and isn't visible once in place. If the gaps are as large as mine were, you will probably need a new door. Good luck.
