As an RV owner, you’re probably familiar with winterizing your camper. While it’s not a task that anyone looks forward to, as it’s an inevitably sad time marking the end of a memorable season and the beginning of a long winter. However, at Timbuktu RV, we’re gearing up for another great season! Spring has arrived, which means camper parts are flying off our shelves faster than we can stock them. Why? Well, because RV owners are now de-winterizing their RVs!
Although the moment has arrived to pull the RV back out of storage, there are also tasks to be filled. Often, RV owners find themselves facing a few bumps of the winter season. With the right parts, you and your family will be camping before you know it. Here, we’re taking a look at three of the most common camper parts every RV should have in storage.
Bathroom Supplies
While it may not be on the top of your list, let’s face it – bathroom supplies are essential. So do yourself a favor amid the spring excitement, and take care of the bathroom essentials first. Specialized RV toilet chemicals and RV-friendly toilet paper are two items that every RV should have in surplus.
If you’re not familiar with the specialized chemicals, they help control odor and build-up. Some brands offer added protection by dissolving paper held in the tanks. The most important thing to remember here is the word specialized. Regular home chemicals are too harsh and will deteriorate the RVs plumbing.
Sewer Hose Kit
If you’re a seasoned camper, chances are you already have a sewer hose tucked away. However, checking in on the condition of the hose early in the season is always a good idea. The last thing you’ll want to deal with is a hose that cracked over the winter in the midst of emptying your black water tank.
Water Filter and Hose
Fresh, clean water is not a luxury. It is a necessity. Traveling around subjects you, your family, and your animals to various water sources, not all clean. Using an RV water filter, you can have peace of mind that your drinking, cooking, and cleaning water is free from potentially harmful particles and sediments.
