Hey Peter thanks for the information. We have found out in the last year that the Advent replacement options either don't work at all, are a mess to rewire because the pins don't line up with the correct functions, and they always void the…

Hey there Michelle! While weight distribution systems are supposed to get the truck and trailer as level as possible, they are not complete miracle workers and won't make both 100% level in all situations. In fact, Andersen has a section of the…
Hey Josh, the replacement for your existing B12EA-22 brake would be #AKEBRK-7R-SA for the right side and #AKEBRK-7L-SA for the left. There are two sizes of grease seals that fit 7k axles and there isn't a rhyme or reason as to which you may…

How do I keep my RV’s plumbing system running smoothly?
Regular maintenance is key! For your freshwater system, use a water filter to keep everything clean and free of contaminants. Adding a water pressure regulator is a good idea too—it protects your pipes when you’re hooking up to different water sources. For the sewer side of things, using tank treatments can help break down waste and keep odors in check. And don’t forget to check your hoses and fittings for leaks or wear now and then.
What kind of sewer hose do I need?
You’ll want something long enough to reach dump stations—15 to 20 feet is usually a safe bet. Look for durable materials that can handle regular use without puncturing, and make sure it’s easy to store. Collapsible hoses or ones with storage bags are super handy for keeping things tidy.
How can I make sure the water in my RV is safe to drink?
First, use a drinking water hose that’s made specifically for potable water—don’t use a garden hose! Add a good water filter to improve taste and remove contaminants. And when you’re connecting to an outside water source, a water pressure regulator will protect your system from damage caused by high water pressure.
Do I need special plumbing fittings for my RV?
It’s a good idea to have the right fittings on hand. Things like hose adapters, elbows, and couplers make connecting everything a lot easier. If you want to save time at the campsite, quick-connect fittings are super convenient, too. Just make sure the fittings match your hose diameter and material.
How do I winterize my RV’s plumbing?
Winterizing is a must if you’re storing your RV in cold weather. Start by draining all the water out of the system, including the water heater and tanks. Then, use a water pump converter kit to run RV-specific antifreeze through your plumbing. Turn on all your faucets, showers, and toilets until you see the antifreeze come through, and pour some down the drains to protect the P-traps. It’s not hard, and it’ll save you from costly repairs later.If you’re not sure where to start, check out our article: Winterize and De-Winterize Your RV. It’s a step-by-step guide to getting your RV ready for freezing weather and making it easy to hit the road when spring comes!
What’s the benefit of a tankless RV water heater?
Tankless systems heat water only when needed—no tank, no reheating. They’re energy-efficient, compact, and deliver endless hot water for showers, dishes, and more.Make sure the unit fits your existing space and matches your RV’s plumbing and power setup. Some units may require slight modifications during installation, so check the instructions or consult a professional if needed. For a complete guide, check out our article.
