Care Tips

Exterior & Chassis

  • Every 90 days, thoroughly inspect the roof sealants, sealants
    around windows, exterior doors, cargo doors, fittings and moldings.
    Reseal annually.
  • Inspect the chassis frame rails and components. Check for
    loosened bolts. Look for bent or dented parts.
    Check visible wiring. Look for damaged wiring. Look for loosened
    connections.
  • Check the tires and wheels. Be sure tires are properly inflated
    and wheel lug nuts remain torqued correctly to the specification.
  • Open exterior storage compartments regularly and ventilate. Look
    for any signs of water intrusion. Reseal as required or ask your
    dealer for assistance.

Interior & Furnishings

  • Thoroughly ventilate the interior when using the trailer. This will
    reduce the effects of condensation that could damage walls and
    fabrics.
  • Wipe up spills and excess moisture from floors and carpets.
  • Vacuum frequently to enhance carpet performance.
  • Close window shades when the trailer is stored in direct sunlight
    to minimize possible fabric and carpet fading.
  • When storing your trailer for long periods, empty all foodstuffs
    from cabinets and the refrigerator, especially during freezing
    weather.

Plumbing & Propane Systems

  • Frequently open cabinets and plumbing access panels to look
    for any signs of plumbing leaks or water intrusion.
  • Over time, road dynamics from towing may cause some plumbing
    fittings to loosen. This is normal. You can easily tighten most
    fittings by hand or with basic tools to stop or prevent minor leaks.
  • Check and clean the fresh water filter at the water pump regularly.
    When reinstalling the filter housing, be sure it is tight, run the
    fresh water pump and check for any leaks.
  • If you store your trailer in freezing weather, completely drain the
    fresh water plumbing system, water heater, toilet, ice maker, and
    holding and fresh water tanks. See your dealer for the proper
    winterization procedure. Visit your trailer while it is in storage.
    Inspect for anything unusual.
  • Check the propane gas tank hold down bracket. Be sure it is tight
    before towing your trailer.
  • Each time your propane tanks are filled, check the propane hose
    fittings at the tanks. Tighten them securely, but by hand only.
