Getting your RV in Tip-Top Shape

To help you prepare your RV for your upcoming adventures.

Here’s a simple yet efficient checklist

• Open all doors and compartments and check for rodent intrusion and water damage

• Replace any dry cell batteries you may have removed for winter storage

• Test the operation of the carbon monoxide detector, the LP gas leak detetor and the smoke detector

• Check the fire extinguisher and make sure it is fully charged

• Open the awning to let it dry

• Raise the radio / TV Antenna

• Inspect all seams, windows and vents for water damage and reseal if necessary

• Lubricate all hinges and locks with spray lubricant

• Test the operation of the hydaulic jacks if applicable. Also check de hydraulic fluid level.

• Place mothballs near (not in) the gas burner assembly of the refrigerator (to prevenr spiders from nesting and causing gas flow blockages at the burner)

• Place sheets of bounce or fleecy (or similar product) under each mattress and cushion. This will keep field mice away as they don’t like the smell

• Inspect the tires for signs of dry rot. Inflate all tires to the recommended tire pressure
