    You make quite a few "must need" RV supply videos but i always watch them because invariably there are 1 or 2 items I add to my list I'm building for my future RV journey's. ❤

      Something to think about: Unique is BOTH a Probiotic and Enzyme treatment - this type of formula can eliminate odors AND prevent clogs. Other formulas can only do one or the other

    When you store a travel trailer, what is the best way to cover the windows? Sun ruined our last trailers flooring, so when we store it for the winter, we need to cover the windows.

    • @GratefulGlamper
      @GratefulGlamper  8 місяців тому +1

      Pick up some Reflectix to cut out for each window. Great stuff! www.amazon.com/dp/B000BPAULS/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_S54PSD1NC56PHQ25HFQ2?linkCode=ml2&tag=techknow01-20

    Great advice! Walmart varies a lot from store to store regarding how many RV supplies they carry, but we’ve found one near a local state park has a large RV section. I’ve also recently discovered Tractor Supply carries several RV items along with tons of things helpful with repairs. Thanks again for helping our family be RV smart!

    We use the cheap stuff from Walmart for the black tank and have no problems. We also just use a regular hose to fill our clean water tank. I never have hooked up to a pressure system. We don't have a water filter and don't drink the water from the camper. We used bottled water. There are enough people running around drinking bottled water when they don't have to so my little contribution to the destruction of the planet doesn't matter.The electrical adapters are a good idea. I have a NEMA 14-50 on my shop so we can weld outside when the weather is nice and an adapter so I can plug my TT-30 into it. I also have cord that plugs into the camper and converts to a 5-15 so I can use a cheap 16 ga extension cord to keep the battery charged and the refrigerator running and not degrade the expensive TT-30 cord. I told my wife to NOT use the AC, microwave, or electric water heater when the camper is plugged in with the 16 ga cord. After our last trip, I bought at 25' TT-30 extension cord. Luckily the couple we were camping with had a spare that I could use to orient our camper the way we wanted it oriented.

    Clearly the RV section at a Florida Wal-Mart is way better stocked than here in Pennsylvania. Ours has a few things, but nothing name brand. And have you ever noticed when buying plastic utensils that you can buy a box of spoons and a box of forks but nobody packages just a box of knives?

    I picked up RV antifreeze (prestone brand) from Walmart. After running it thru the kitchen faucet, my carbon monoxide detector went off. After opening the outside door and turning on the ceiling fan everything went back to normal. I didn't think much about it for a month or so but, I had a couple of gallons left over so when my daughter and son-in-law were finished camping we used the same stuff on there TT. Yep same thing, carbon monoxide detector went off. I guess we know now out Co detectors work (:
