Tire Maintenance

One of the leading causes of tire failure is under inflated tires. Under inflated tires cause extreme heat build up that leads to tire failure. Tires can lose up to two pounds of air pressure per month. If you dont check your tires for three or four months they could be seriously under inflated. You should regularly check tire inflation, and adjust it if required.

You always want to check the tires when they are cold, meaning that you dont drive or move the RV before checking inflation. Invest in an accurate inflation pressure gauge. Check all tires and adjust pressure according to the manufacturers recommendation. Do no exceed the maximum pressure ratings found on the tires sidewall. Never check inflation pressure when the tires are hot, you will get a higher-pressure reading and if you let some air out they will be under inflated when they are cold.

RV Tips : Mold and Mildew

A major cause of mold and mildew is long term storage. Keeping a trailer or camper locked down or under a tarp, can create a very efficient mold and mildew incubator.

Even an RV that is used year round and never put into storage is not immune from mold and mildew. This is because full-time RVers tend to follow the sun to warmer climates which encourages endless mold and mildew growth – especially for those touring Florida and Texas.”

For RV owners these three steps can help keep the problem under control:

1) Inspect – Look for early signs of mold and mildew in places such as shower areas, underneath sinks and stoves, gel coat exteriors, storage compartments, caulking and molding (around windows, doors and sunroofs) ceilings, ceiling vents, vinyl awnings, water and sewerage hook-ups, and refrigerators, dishwashers and washing machines that have not been used for extended periods.

2) Repair – Fix plumbing leaks, drain clogs, roof leaks, damaged caulking or molding and poor bathroom ventilation that can encourage mold and mildew growth.

3) Remove – Treat emerging mold thoroughly with a multi-purpose stain/mildew remover.

Happy Customers

Our owner Rod considers customer service a top priority. Here are a couple of comments from happy customers, found on www.popupexplorer.com.

My wife and I recently purchased a Forest River Rockwood 2701 SS from Brien's. I have never been treated so well by a dealership. All aspects of the purchase went extremely smooth. From the time a down payment was made until the trailer was pulled off the lot. The sales and service staff were extremely helpful and informative. I would strongly recommend Briens to anyone interested in purchasing a trailer or just looking for a great service department.

If you are open to some other brands (Rockwood), then I would STRONGLY recommend you check out my new dealer - Briens RV. It is far but the price is well worth it. Case in point, there is a Rockwood dealer located 4 minutes from my house, but I am driving 60 minutes to get to Briens. His pricing is rock bottom. Like RV Wholesalers type prices. Adam hooked me up with this guy. He is a straight shooter and very easy going.

RV Roof Maintenance

Metal roofs, usually aluminum, are found on many older motorhomes, travel trailers and fifthwheels. Regular cleaning(one or two times a year) and inspection are all that is generally required. A regular automotive wash and wax will work well.

If your motor home, travel trailer or fifthwheel was made in the last 10 years, chances are it has a rubber roof. It's a material called Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM). EPDM manufacturers advise that rubber roof membranes do not require the use of any protective roof treatment or roof protector product. The only maintenance recommended is cleaning the roof four times a year.

If you have an EPDM roof, you may have noticed that the roof surface is chalky. Manufacturers say this is a normal process of age.
Regular cleaning will reduce chalk buildup and minimize white streaks on the sides of your RV. The correct cleaning product is very important for your EPDM rubber roof. Never use cleaners or conditioners containing petroleum solvents, harsh abrasives or citric based cleaners on your EPDM roof. Using such solvents will cause irreparable damage and will most likely void your warranty.

After the roof is clean and before you climb down, be sure to inspect all the roof seams, around vents, etc., to make sure the caulking is still in good condition.

Here are some recommended articles on roof care.
