Default RV Education 101 Tips

RV Education 101 Tips
By Mark Polk

Hot Water Vents:
Show your children where the water heater and furnace vents are located and explain to them how hot they get. Keep children away from these vents, they can cause serious burns and injuries. Don’t allow children to turn any hot water faucets on. Hot water temperatures can be extremely high if not set properly.

Odd-Even:
If you ever get confused about the direction you’re traveling in keep in mind that most odd numbered Interstate highways run north to south and even numbered run east to west.

Poor Emissions:
Poor emissions and/or a faulty oxygen sensor can cause a 40% reduction in fuel economy. Can you believe that? A 40% REDUCTION!

Potable Water:
You never know the condition or quality of potable water at various campgrounds. Always use a water filtration system to filter the drinking water in your RV, or take bottled water with you for drinking water.

Clean Filters:
Keep the filters in your roof air conditioner clean and it will operate more efficiently. Refer to the A/C owner’s manual for cleaning instructions. Replacement filters are sold at most RV dealerships.

Happy Camping,

Mark
