If your RV is not properly cared for and maintained, some of the damage that occurs to it may be declined by your RV insurance company. An insurance company only needs to pay the costs of damage to bring your RV back up to where it was prior to the accident or incident, and if it was already in poor condition, that may mean not having to pay much. At The Select Insurance Agency, serving Coppell, TX, we went to help you to properly maintain your RV. Here are a few things you should do to help maintain your RV before taking it out camping this summer.
Have Your RV Inspected By a Mechanic
Before you take your RV out, be sure to have it inspected by a mechanic. They can identify problems that may need to be fixed before they turn into bigger issues or become a safety hazard.
Take the Time to Clean the Interior of the RV
After your RV has been sitting, it may be dirty and dusty inside. Take the time to thoroughly clean it out before you take it out camping. This is also the perfect time to check for rust or other signs of leaking along the roof of the RV.
Pressure Wash the Exterior of the RV
Lastly, take the time to pressure wash the exterior of the RV. This helps to remove dirt, dust, mildew and other debris that can make your RV look old and tired, or damage the body.
Now is also the perfect time to look over your RV insurance policy and ensure your coverages and limits still meet your needs.
