Frequently Asked Questions
What are some of the most important maintenance services for RVs?
Essential maintenance for trailers includes running gear checks and inspecting roof and window seals to ensure they remain in good condition. Key maintenance tasks for motorhomes are chassis servicing and regular upkeep of the roof and seals.
What are the best ways for an RV owner to prolong the longevity of their RV?
Regular inspections of your roof and seals are critical to extend the life of your RV. Leaks can lead to significant damage, including rot and mold, drastically reducing your RV’s lifespan. Additionally, scheduling annual maintenance ensures that a professional can catch and address issues before they escalate, keeping your RV in excellent shape for years.
How can you achieve better gas mileage when towing a trailer?
Improving gas mileage while towing starts with ensuring proper tire pressure on your trailer. Both overinflated and underinflated tires can negatively affect gas mileage. Regular maintenance, such as packing bearings, inspecting running gear, and addressing other key components, also contributes to better fuel efficiency.
How can you save more battery power while camping?
Switching to LED lighting is one of the most effective ways to conserve battery power in your RV. If your battery drains quickly, upgrading to LED lighting can make a big difference. Additionally, using items like your lights, furnace, and RV appliances only when needed, can help your batteries last longer.
Why is water backing up in my RV’s shower or sink?
A full grey water tank in your RV often causes water backups. Regularly draining your grey water tank will prevent these issues.
What should I do if a sewer smell is coming from my RV?
If you notice a sewer smell, the first step is to properly empty and thoroughly clean your black water tanks. If the odor persists, inspect the ventilation system to ensure all vents are functioning correctly and there are no blockages.
What should I do if one of my RV slides won’t retract?
If your RV slide-out won’t retract automatically or electrically, you’ll need to manually retract it. Afterward, take your RV to an RV service center for inspection and repair.
Why is my RV shaking while driving?
Shaking while driving down the road is typically due to poor sway control. To avoid this issue, regular servicing of your RV is essential. If you experience shaking, visit an RV service centre to diagnose and resolve the problem.
