#6). RV Refrigerator Fan:
Sometimes it can get really hot out and your RVs refrigerator fan might get overloaded. This is where an RV refrigerator fan comes into play. You see, a lot of RV refrigerators are absorption refrigerators. This means that the refrigerator uses an ammonia solution that sucks the heat out of the fridge. They are typically very efficient, but they can need some extra help at times and an RV refrigerator fan
is the perfect solution.
#7). Adjustable Water Pressure Regulator:
An adjustable water pressure regulator is an RV component that protects your RV plumbing from high pressure. If the water pressure in your RV gets too high, your pipes could burst. This can result in a lot of headaches and possibly some costly repairs, so it is best to get and keep an adjustable water pressure regulator
installed.
#8). G.P.S:
Bringing a GPS is something quite obvious to bring with you in your RV in today’s world because of all the awesome and almost insane advances in technology. They are another one of those important RV accessories that you should have in your recreational vehicle. GPS
systems, or Global Positioning Systems, can pinpoint you and point you in the right direction from just about anywhere in the world! Make sure you bring a GPS
along with you in your RV and as long as it has power, you will never be lost!
#9). RV Sewer Hose(s)
Yes, taking care of the sewer part of your RV is gross. However, it is a necessary evil, if you will. Make sure and keep your RVs sewer hose(s) and change it out when it is needed, or you could run into some trouble.
#10). RV Drinking Water Hose:
RV drinking water hoses are for your drinking water in your RV. Most drinking water hoses are made from a BPA free material that is completely safe to drink out of. The main reason these RV drinking water hose
s are so important is that if you just use any old hose, you will be drinking contaminated water. They can be found in a variety of sizes as well. They are typically found in sizes anywhere from 15 to 50. Most traditional hoses are not safe for drinking because the material they are made from reacts with the water and exposes the water to its own molecules. So keep an RV drinking water hose
around. It is for not only your safety but the safety of whomever you go RVing with.
#11). Jump starter:
A jump starter is another one of the important RV accessories. Your RVs battery could die when it is sitting for a while. Usually when you would least expect it. When you are driving your RV, the battery is being charged by the alternator and not many people have issues with their batteries dying while driving. However, what we are focusing on here is the unpredictability of batteries when the car is off. Say you are going to take your RV camping a little far off into the woods. It is cold out, and you go to start your vehicle, nothing but clicking!
Well, since you have your handy jump starter, you can just hook it up to the positive and negative terminals respectively, let it sit for a couple of minutes and boom, your back in business! So you see, having a jump starter
around could save you from some seriously bad situations. So make sure you have one if for nothing else, do it for peace of mind. Trust us when we say, it is truly worth it.
To Sum It Up:
Keep these RV accessories in mind when checking off the list for your RV. Also, remember that something small could save you from some huge consequences. As we always say, it is always best to be prepared beforehand so that you do not end up having to deal with what comes with being unprepared. If you found this helpful, why not share it!
