The RV Owner's Handbook: Systems, Hookups, Maintenance, and Checklists for Your First Season on the Road - Softcover
Synopsis
An RV is a house and a vehicle at the same time, with plumbing, electrical and propane systems that have to survive highway miles and a different campsite every few days. The RV Owner's Handbook explains how it all works, what to do in the right order, and how to keep your rig safe and in good shape, for travel trailers, fifth wheels, camper vans and motorhomes.
This expanded edition covers:
Safety first: propane, carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, emergency exits and electrical safety.
Electrical systems explained clearly: 12-volt and 120-volt, converter, inverter, fuses and GFCIs, 30-amp and 50-amp shore power, surge protection and how to manage your power on a 30-amp site, plus batteries, generators and solar.
Fresh water, gray and black tanks and the dump station step by step, the propane system, and how to use your refrigerator, water heater, furnace and air conditioner.
Weights and ratings (GVWR, GAWR, GCWR, cargo capacity and tongue weight), hitching step by step, trailer brakes and breakaway switches, sway, towing a car behind a motorhome, driving in mountains and wind, and tire care, including how to read a tire's date code.
Setting up and breaking camp in the right order, the walk-around that prevents the most expensive mistakes, boondocking, and caring for slide-outs, awnings and the roof.
A maintenance calendar, winterizing and storage, a troubleshooting table for the most common problems, trip planning, insurance and warranties, common beginner mistakes, ready-to-use checklists, a glossary and FAQs.
Seven clear diagrams. Practical, safety-first and organized so you can find the answer fast, whether you are planning your first trip or standing at the campsite wondering which hose goes where.
