It's Time to Get Ready for Camping Season!

Are you ready for camping season?  If not, don't worry, RVPandA has you covered! Here's a list of things you need to do and some accessories you should have to make sure your RV is ready for the great outdoors.

First things first, let's talk about the boring stuff. Before you hit the road, you'll need to make sure your RV is in tip-top shape.

• Inspect the roof for any cracks or holes in the seals. Make sure cracks are sealed up to keep water out.  Water is your RV’s worst enemy! 
• As long as you’re up on your roof, now is a good time to give it a good cleaning. At RVPandA, we have EVERYTHING you need to keep your roof both sealed AND clean!
• Make sure your RV battery is charged! Batteries can lose up to 10% of their charge while in storage.
• De-Winterize your Water System. Run fresh water through the entire system until all traces of anti-freeze are removed. This is a great time to check for any leaks. Make sure your water system is in tip top shape and ready to use! 
• Check the plumbing for leaks too.  If you find leaks or need to make repairs - RVPandA has plenty of plumbing hardware for fixing your plumbing before you hit the road!  
• Go through all the appliances and make sure they’re in working order. Nothing ruins a camping trip like a warm beverage, melted ice cream or a hot camper!  
• Check the tire pressure. Just like a battery loses its charge while in storage, tires can lose air pressure. And don’t forget the spare!

Now, let's talk about the fun stuff. No camping trip is complete without a good camping chair. Make sure you have one (or two) for each person in your party. Bonus points if they come with cup holders, because let's be real, nobody wants to have to hold their drink for too long.

Another must-have for any camping trip is a good cooler. Make sure it's big enough to hold all your food and drinks for the trip. And don't forget the ice, because nothing is worse than a warm can of soda on a hot summer day.

Finally, don't forget the essentials like a camping stove, a lantern and a first aid kit. You hope you’ll never need it, but it's better to be safe than sorry. You also need to make sure you have those special RV items like RV toilet paper and those very necessary chemicals for your holding tank.

So, there you have it, a basic list of things you need to do and accessories you need to have to make sure your RV is ready for camping season.
