    This was invaluable. Thanks. Could you do a slow one please. I feel overwhelmed. I know not everything applied to my van but it was a bit quick for me. I have taken over from my elderly husband in doing the van and it is daunting. Thank you.

    Seems s good basic set up but I noticed you plugged the electric in the wrong way round should always plug into the van first then in to the power supply otherwise you are carrying a live cable.

  • @chrisjh1982
    @chrisjh1982 3 роки тому +1

    How safe are motorhomes? Ie if I am strapping my kids to the rear seats how are they protected from side impacts etc? Highly unlikely I know.

    • @marklittler784
      @marklittler784 3 роки тому

      Safer in the sense your seated higher up off the road.

  • @davidtanslow3584
    @davidtanslow3584 3 роки тому +1

    Seems an awfully long way to pump the water from the freshwater tank at the back to the boiler near the front then draw it all at the taps which are at the back.
    A confusing situation on the autotrail is the gas control for the boiler is actually next to the electric habitat heater complete with thermostat yet there's also an electric thermostat control on the heater itself. !!
    They do seem to put the electric isolation switches and gas taps in the most awkward places.

    Is there a department within some motorhome company's that deliberately looks for ways to complicate the design of beds you have to make up.
    Perhaps there's a patent on the most simple easy to use designs or methods of erecting a semi permanent bed

  • @welltheresathing8870
    @welltheresathing8870 Рік тому +2

    I have 18 months left on the mortgage, once this is finished the plan is to purchase a motor home and spend some quality time with the better half, I must say your video(s) are easy to follow and good honest advice is freely available to one and all, when the time comes, I promise you will be the first port of call.

    How long would you recommend the water in the tank can be kept before it goes stale or needs changing.As always,good advice and guidance.Cheers.

    • @richardcope3850
      @richardcope3850 3 роки тому +1

      Use the van regularly and you won’t have a problem. Don’t be someone who keeps the van parked on the drive most of the time. If we are going to leave the van alone for two weeks or more (rare) then we drain it. Twice a year we give it a good clean (puriclean) and in 20 years we’ve not had a problem. Similarly give the waste tank a good clean/flush every six months or less.
