We talked at length with Andy and Owen at Oshkosh about this, and a few other little things. They are very aware of the shipping issues, and assured us that things were improving. I know from our conversations they have alot of production going on, so growing pains are the byproduct of increased business. The purchased a couple of CNC machines to speed production, but even that takes time to fill the pipeline.
I feel ya, it took me 4 months to get a duplex valve that was buying ONLY for mock up purposes. We have talked to Jim Irwin at Spruce about stocking some more of the Andair products, to make it faster for us to get components. BUT, he has to get them first, and thats where the bottleneck is. Steve and I event talked about stocking some of the valves, but again its a production thing.
Rest assured, Andy and Owen are doing everything they can to solve this issue.
BTW----I dont have a dog in this fight, other than we plumb alot of Andair valves, not only for RV's but other experimentals as well, and we have the same issues as you guys. BUT---when you get the valve, you'll see thats its worth the wait.
