Plumbing parts for Vista 348

[DictationGuru]

I've got 2003 Vista 348 that needs a new water heater. The plumbing connections are special snap-on connectors to the metric-size plastic tubing. Does anyone know where I can get these special fittings? Thanks in advance.

You probably have Whale fittings. You can re-use the old fittings, to remove push in the collar around the pipe and pull on the pipe.
West Marine have a few Whale fittings on their site.
This site will show some examples: http://www.whalepumps.com/caravan_RV/product_list/40/
There is a link to the USA source from whalepumps.com
There are transition fittings from Whale to common pipe threads.
