Traveling around the country in your RV means that the water quality will greatly vary, depending on the source. One assumes that the local water supply is safe to consume or use for washing. However, even if the water is deemed safe, the mineral or sediment content of the water can vary greatly from what you’re used to at home. In fact, most of the United States deals with hard water issues. Not only can that fluctuate across the country, but it can also change depending on the time of year as well. Two of the most common ways to deal with this include RV water filters & water softeners.

If you've owned a Motorhome or Camper for any length of time, I'm at the 26-year mark; you may have found yourself in a love-hate relationship with your RV's water pump. You hate that it's noisy and vibrates the pipes when running; the water pressure never seems right, and if you forget to turn it off and run out of water, you will most likely be in the market for a new pump. But you have to love the fact that they at least get the water in your holding tank out to the faucets, shower, and toilet. And this is where the IRVWPC2 RV Water Pump Controller comes into the picture. They have created a device that turns that not-so-smart water pump into a complete genius!

This year’s holiday season is right around the corner! Do you need gift ideas for the RV’er on your list? Or maybe you’re the RV’er who needs to drop some hints to someone else? If so, you’ve come to the right place! We have nearly everything an RV or camping enthusiast could need for their next trip, from practical gifts to more whimsical items that are just for fun. But if you need some assistance, here are some great suggestions to help you out!

Winterizing your RV is important for minimizing damage or problems that can occur during the off-season. With Halloween right around the corner, the cold temperatures of winter are not too far away. Some places have already gotten a taste of wintry weather. You may be planning on taking your RV south for the winter, but if not, now is the time to prepare your RV for long term storage. It should ideally be done before the temperatures go below freezing for a sustained period. Obviously, the biggest step is replacing the water in your plumbing system with anti-freeze to protect the lines, but there is more to the process.

With their limited space, the storage in your RV’s kitchen becomes a priority. You may have to learn to get creative about using all the available space and be smart about using it wisely. Not to mention all the RV kitchen gadgets & supplies that are available. Some of them may seem nifty, but they may not be practical to store, especially if they are only used for one specific purpose. If you are new to RVing, it may be daunting to figure out all the accessories you need for your RV kitchen, as some supplies may be different compared to your home kitchen.

If you are new to RVing, or if you are new to driving large vehicles, there are several factors to keep in mind. Things that might not seem to be an issue when you are driving a car, or even a van or truck, make a difference when you are behind the wheel of a motorhome. Of course, there’s the RV’s length, braking distance, turning radius, and blind spots. However, besides all that is also the RV’s height. The height of the RV, along with any rooftop accessories such as air conditioners, can make a difference in whether it can clear the underpass beneath a bridge, canopy, or overhang.

Despite being on the road and enjoying the outdoors, there are times when it’s just as nice to stay inside and watch some TV. When it comes to RVing, there are several options, including online streaming or cable. However, internet connection may not always be reliable. On the other hand, many campgrounds and parks don’t have cable hookups. If you are looking for more traditional TV viewing, there are still several options of RV antennas available so you don’t miss the big game, or your favorite shows.
