Last Minute Winterizing Tips
By this point most of us are aware of the concept of winterizing your RV and that the plumbing/water has to be flushed and 
replaced with an RV anti-freeze but there are a few other tips that may help save you time, money, and hassle when camping season rolls around.
Do’s
*Wash your unit and check all seams and sealants for cracks or leaks. Reseal any voids in the sealant with an RV sealant
*Extend all of your awning and open pop-up campers to let fabric dry completely before storage
*Lubricate all doors and hinges with an appropriate lubricant
*Inflate tires to maximum cold pressure (should be listed on sidewall)
*If storing outdoors protect each tire with an ultraviolet-ray resistant cover
*Place a barrier between the tire and the ground such as a piece of wooden plank
*Defrost and dry the inside of your refrigerator/freezer. It may be wise to leave a container of baking soda inside the refrigerator to absorb odors and moisture
*Leave appliances turned off and unplugged
*Close all windows and draw the shades
*Many RV owners suggest a dehumidifier of some sort. This could even be in the form of a power free product
*Make a list of items remaining in the RV and photograph the interior and exterior. This could come in handy in case of fire, vandalism, or theft.
*If stored in freezing temperatures, removing the rigs batteries is suggested
*Deter pests as much as possible. Many RV owners swear by fabric softener sheets which emit a scent that most pests can’t stand. Simply place these at any and all possible entrances and even beneath each tire.
*Keep out the smaller pests such as ants as well. Many RVers find that placing a ring of Comet cleanser around each tire protects against an ant invasion.
Don’ts
*Park your RV for the winter below a tree. You may think you are adding protection but the risk of breaking limbs outweighs the benefits.
*Remove your trailer tires for the winter or jack up your unit to lessen the weight. Both of these have proven a fruitless exercise.
*Use a standard tarpaulin (common blue tarp) to cover your RV. It can trap moisture and will almost certainly damage the exterior paint

Simple Tips for Keeping Your RV Clean
* Soak your RV shower head in a bag of vinegar to clean out mineral deposits 
* Use a squeegee to clean pet hair off of the carpet… even the best of vacuums can’t seem to get all of the pet hair out.
* To clean your awning and hard to reach areas use a garden sprayer
* Clean iron stained porcelain toilets with whitening toothpaste, the iron stains will scrub right off
* To get rid of food stains that discolor the white dual purpose cutting board and sink cutter fill a rubber made tote with a mixture of 15 to 1 of bleach and let soak for a day. This will restore them to their original whiteness.
* Instead of trying to scrub down the screen door in your RV you will find it much easier to take the door off. Most are held on by about 6 screws and you will be able to get a much better scrub to it using a brush and hose.
* To keep your outdoor grill clean year round use a ball of tin foil held between barbecue tongs to clean and scrape the grill while it’s hot. If the residue still won’t budge try a spritz of a vinegar/water solution which will help soften the stuck on food.
Protecting Your RV Tires This Winter
Putting good tires on your RV is most definitely an investment. And while it is undoubtedly a worthwhile investment you don’t want to throw that investment 
out the window by letting your tires ruin or wear during the cold winter months. There are a few things that you can do to help protect your investment and allow a speedy de-winterizing.
The first thing you can do is make a small investment in canvas wheel covers. Not only do they help to protect your wheels against the cold and the elements but it also helps shield your tires against the damaging UV rays of the sun. If you choose to not use wheel covers then at least before storing for the winter apply a rubber protectant product such as Armor-All on your tires.
To help prevent flattening of your tire on one side, many experts recommend rotating your tires every few weeks. It is also suggested that you place a wooden plank or another insulating barrier beneath each tire. For safety reason it is recommended that you chock the wheels to prevent accidental movement.
Just taking these small steps during the winter can help save you time and money in the long run.
Is Your RV over 5 years old?
If you look at nearly any product, service, or practice over the past 5 years it has undoubtedly changed in one way or another. Take for instance medical procedures, baby products, tennis shoes, and much more. Progress seems to be the name of the game so it is not surprising that there has been some wonderful improvements to RV’s in just a few short years. And while every RV, manufacturer, and floor plan is different there are some overview things that have changed and improved.
One of the most obvious changes to man RV’s is the infused colored fiberglass that now comes standard on many models instead of the basic white. The tint of color offers up a classier and more unique appearance which was not a standard offer a couple years ago. And while we are discussing the exterior it is worth pointing out that while not entirely new, frameless windows are much more popular than they were 5 years ago and give a sleeker more styled appearance to the outside.
Another great improvement to the appearance of many different models is the use of LED lighting instead of old standard bulbs. This certainly brightens up the RV and allows for a cleaner look. In addition to a more updated and modern interior decor a lot of RV’s are installed with residential refrigerators as opposed to the standard and smaller RV refrigerators. Larger and nicer TV’s have also become more common in the newer RV’s as they also become more affordable all around.
So if these upgrades (as well as many, many more) appeal to you then stop in our showroom to see for yourself the vast improvements just a few short years can make.
RV Maintenance Tips that Take Minutes But Can Save Thousands
While camping season is winding down it is still important to stay diligent about regular maintenance. Just a few minutes of your time can end up saving you a fortune down the road. So before you pack it up, store it, and close it down why not take a few minutes to follow a couple maintenance tips and be able to enjoy your RV when spring finally rolls around again.
- Check your sealants around windows and doors. Make sure they are all sealed tight and no light or air is coming through. This will help keep out moisture and bugs.
- Run your generator for at least 2 hours per month. Sitting unused for months on end is not good for the generator.
- Clean out your holding tanks on a regular basis. By doing this you are helping to prevent bacteria and odors from permeating through your RV.
- Lube your slide rails. Keeping them fully lubricated reduces friction and helps ensure your slide rails stay in good condition.
- Check your tire pressure. Even though you aren’t planning to move your camper you don’t want it to sit on deflated tires. Some even suggest rotating them every couple of weeks or so so that they don’t develop a flat spot.
By following these simple and quick tips you can save yourself a lot of money and time come spring and be able to get out and enjoy the long awaited start of camping season!
