Product Recommendation

 

  • Liquified: The best performing tank treatment that I know of.
  • Lexel: It takes practice to make it look good, but it’s a high quality product. An ugly seal is better than a broken seal.
  • Self leveling dicor: I’ve found this brand to work well for flat roof repairs.
  • Non leveling dicor: I’ve found this brand to work well for roof repairs near the edge.
  • Small dehumidifier: I keep a small dehumidifier in my restroom. It’s a small room that catches a lot of steam from the shower, so why not be safe and protect against that moist air.
  • Large dehumidifier: Humidity can easily lead to mold. It’s easy to avoid.
  • Non electric dehumidifier: Boondocking and want to save your batteries? Storing your RV? These are good options.
  • Mattress ventilation: Mold can also grow under your mattress as well. This will help prevent that.
  • Non contact voltage tester: Are you trying to figure out some electric problem but you don’t want to get shocked? This will beep at you if its not safe to touch. It can also tell you if your outlets are wired correctly and working.
  • Pex tools: If you make a single repair yourself, you’ve already earned back the money spent on this.
  • Screw driver: Everyone needs a screwdriver. This one has all the bits to take care of almost all of the screws you’ll find in your RV.
  • Fuses: These are excellent to have on hand. Instead of buying a full variety kit, open your fuse panel and see what types you have. 15amp, 20amp, 30amp. You can get a small container or each at any automotives store.
  • 90 degree elbow: While this isn’t “necessary” it can help lighten the strain on your city water connection. Which means it’ll last longer and is less likely to develop a leak.
  • Water pressure regulator: If you don’t have one of these and the water pressure spikes in your park, it can blow your plumbing apart. 50psi is a safe setting.
  • Water filter: Absolutely filter every drop of water that comes into your RV. 1, I have seen what city water lines look like and it made me immediately buy a water filter. 2, sediment that comes in from unfiltered water can block your plumbing and it’s not the easiest to find where its located. Find out how long the filter you get is rated for and replace it as needed.
  • Surge protector: Not only do these tell you if the pedestal is wired and working correctly, but they also protect your RV from power surges that could fry your system. They are not all created equal. This one is expensive, but its the best on the market.
  • Rhinoflex 5 foot sewer hose: Every sewer hose breaks eventually. Do you want to replace an expensive 20 foot hose or do you want to replace a single less expensive 5 foot section?
  • Propane tank warmer: If you’re in cold weather, I highly recommend these. Your appliances use propane in it’s gas form. It’s in your tanks in a liquid form. In cold weather, liquid propane evaporates into gas at a slower rate. Meaning that your furnace may stop working one day in the winter and the only reason is that you were more propane than it could provide at the time because it was too cold.
  • Insect screens: If your insurance sees these in pictures you send them, it can void your warranty. If you don’t have them, insects love the smell of propane and are more than willing to crawl into your appliance and build a nest there.
  • Temperature gun: This’ll be used on move days. You can use it to tell if you wheel bearings are in trouble or not before it becomes a major issue. When you stop somewhere, check the temp of the wheel hubs. They should all be around the same temperature. If one is significantly different than the others, do not keep driving. find a shop nearby and get it fixed.
