One of the areas of our site that a lot of our customers don’t know about is our wide selection of RV parts and accessories. Almost everyone knows that we are the place to go for your mobile home needs, but before you take your family RV out for the next epic road trip, make sure you check everything out and pick up the RV parts you need. It’s best to repair a problem before it becomes a potential vacation-ruining problem. Completely inspect your RV’s door and the latch and replace it with one of our models if it isn’t closing properly. A door that suddenly swings open on the highway is not only scary, but very unsafe. Also make sure you test the LP gas system, especially if your RV has been sitting for a while. The same goes for your RV’s plumbing: make sure you run the faucets and taps for a while and check the drains for leaks while you do. Water damage or a gas leak can cause tremendous damage and really mess up what should be a relaxing RV adventure.
You can’t know the future, however, and it’s one of the worst things in the world when you’re out on the road, hundreds of miles from both home and your destination, and something goes wrong. Now, we’re not mechanics, but there’s plenty more that we can help with. You should put together a stash of essential RV parts that can be used to repair any of the things that can break in the course of a trip. We really recommend, first and foremost, having some plumbing repair supplies with you. That way, if a pipe bursts on your winter expedition or a leak develops and fogs everything up in the middle of summer, you can fix it and save your vacation. Also, grab a spare door latch and handle. It’s an unfortunate fact that crime exists and some criminals view RVs as easy targets as they aren’t as sturdy as your permanent home. If someone breaks in and damages your door’s latch, it not only affects your future security, but also your safety when driving down the road. One thing you should never be without is a spare LP gas regulator and hose. Again, it’s partly a safety issue. No one wants propane gas leaking out around their family, and if you’re headed to a remote location, a gas leak can leave you and your family eating cold soup in a cold RV.
If trying to plan for the unexpected and also repair what needs to be done now has you a bit overwhelmed, don’t hesitate to call our service representatives. We have the experts that can answer all your questions and guide you to the right RV parts for you. Get your RV parts now before your maintenance needs become a major problem on the open road.
