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!

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.

Summertime RV trips can be a lot of fun, but that ends if you end up sleeping in or spending a rainy day inside a hot, stuffy camper. Running the air conditioner may seem to be the obvious solution, however you’ll want to maximize the amount of shade you can get as well. That will help keep your RV cooler on the inside while also putting less strain on your A/C unit. The side awning can provide some shade, but that may not be sufficient depending on the direction of the sunlight. Here are some ways that you can keep temperatures down inside your RV.

While summer is not a prime gift-buying season, there are still plenty of reasons why you might need a gift for the RV’er or camper in your life. Whether it’s Father’s Day, a summer birthday, an anniversary, or some other occasion, we have many RV gift ideas that can fit any budget.

When towing a trailer or RV, it’s important to take sway control and weight distribution into consideration. Both of them contribute to how smooth a ride you’ll have and how well your vehicle handles. It will also reduce the chances of causing damage to your vehicle, having control issues, or feeling the effects of fishtailing. Strong winds are only one factor that can have an effect on towing. Passing vehicles, especially large trucks, can also make your trailer susceptible to movement. Reducing movement and maintaining control when braking or turning lessens the risk of safety hazards as well.

Spring has finally arrived! That means it’s the perfect time to start thinking about what RV accessories you’ll need, including those for your RV awning. You’ll most likely be spending a lot of time in your RV’s patio area, so you’ll want to make sure your awning lasts for the season. After all, they provide shade and can help protect you from the elements.

With warmer temperatures starting to become more common, it’s time to think about de-winterizing your RV. Getting your RV ready for spring involves more than removing anti-freeze from your plumbing. If your RV has been in storage for several months, here are some things to keep in mind as you get it ready for camping season.

LEDs offer a number of advantages over more traditional bulbs, such as incandescent, fluorescent, or halogen. Upgrading to LED Lighting is becoming more and more common in many places, and RVs are no exception. LED lights have gotten more versatile for several different types of fixtures, both interior and exterior, and are easy to retrofit in your rig.
