Why even bother coming to fit just measure cut it the lengths that you need and then put it in there and zip it up get up it doesn't have to be so detailed be so detailed

Very good advice! You saved a lot of people from making the same mistakes.

Can I use Starbright on the inside of the pop outs if it’s the fuzzy stuff inside?

At what age does the butyl tape generally need to be replaced? I think you said that yours was a 2008 Jayco. We just bought a 2017 Jayco, and I think it will need caulking this year, but not sure if I need to do the butyl tape. Thanks.

How do you know how much water to put in the tank?

How is the condensation with these insulation options you have done in winter.

Does the battery charge while generator is running

Thanks sooooo much

Hi there. Have you ever installed an exterior plug outlet on your pop up? Ours is a 2022 flagstaff and doesn’t have one but it would make a world of difference. Just don’t know how I feel about cutting into the sidewall especially where it’s still under warranty. Thanks!!

Do you know if you can use 1"x 12" pvc board to replace the roof side rail. Also, how much weight needed to be supported by the brackets that get mounted for the lift system?

First time owner! Thank you for the detailed list. Just sent to the entire family before we head out on our first road trip.

Couple of questions: After being hooked up to city water, should I drain the hot water heater when returning home? Also, any tips on a kitchen sink that won’t drain? When I pull the sink/burner top to the floor it will drain just fine 🤷🏼

I love all your videos. They’re very educational. I just got my very first pop-up camper and know nothing about it with all of your knowledge and sharing has really helped me out. Thanks.

I Appreciate all your videos since I'm new to this pop up camping.. Question.. I've filled my holding tank with water but am not getting any water to the sink after having the pump on for a while. How long should it take to get water to the sink? When I first turn on the pump does it first fill the water heater before sending any water to the sink? TIA..

Hey thanks for the video it's very informative I bought a 97 starcraft yesterday and we got rain last night the rain water was pouring in through my AC I'm thinking I may need to replace that seal could you correct me if I'm wrong

That'll take way more than 10 minutes and you said less than 10 minutes......... J/k 😂

Finding this three years too late but quick question on my pop-up there is Greece from the moving components. Mike pop-up is all canvas, an older one. Am I able to use the diluted degreaser on this?

can you show how to properly pack the canvas when done camping, we have a pop-up and having a hard time. Thank U, love U guys videos.

Great Video.. I have a 2001 pop-up new to me.. If the battery is dead or disconnected should I be able to run the lights on the inside of the trailer from shore power? The outlets inside are working but no lights. Also when the battery is fully charged and connected are the lights supposed to work or is there another place to check to make sure all is turned on?

Love the decor. Might do the same but do rwd flannel fornthe curtains. Ty for sharing

the coldest I have been out in in my PUP is upper 30's. I use reflectix in every window but there is a 4" gap at the top for venting. I did my door too. My curtains are pretty heavy so they compensate for that gap. Aside from the insulating benefit the others benefits; on the bunks they keep the moisture from wicking through the canvas flaps on to pillows and bedding, from dew and rain, light blockage, sound deadening. for the tops of all the canvas pop up gizmos or silver/green camping tarps. I strongly suggest the the gizmos are oversized and cover down to the reflectix to the bunk widows. Pop gizmos should offer you custom sizing and frankly it was not expensive and so worth it, With a IR camera the gizmos make a 30 degree differences silver side up in the summer in the winter silver side down reflects the heat back in and captures the solar energy. the other thing i did was put a awning on the driver's side. IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE WHEN IT IS HOT. Plus more dry storage bikes coolers firewood, etc out from under your feet on my unit it also lets me open the windows on the dinette slide with no worry of rain getting in. I hybrid the heat I use a electric heater with two little fans to move the air around to the bunk end then set my gas furnace on about 63 as a back up. I use a 500 watt plug in so I can run my gen all night with the heater. 12' awning new $250 6/23/24 www.hannarv.com/P/38661/Dometic944NR13002TrimLineCaseAwning-Onyx-13FootLength you will need some awning track too in middle of the summer, in Florida, I can get my unit down to 78 in the direct sun with zero shade. bonus tip lastly a filet table with sink, connected to you out door shower warm water to wash dishes out side plus put a wye in the line and connect a spray nozzle like this www.amazon.com/GYMAX-Folding-Cleaning-Fillet-Hunting..... I drain mine into in vertically standing inverted 10 gallon barker tank, under the table then via a gray garden hose I run the waster water to the sewer. if no sewer I bring bigger tank with wheels using a collapsible large rectangular food strainer as the dish dryer/strainer. I have had 15 people in camp and that is a lot of cleaning

Valences not vay- lences

We have a water purification filter under our sink. Because of that, do we need one attached to the campsite water supply?

Is there anything I should use that is more gentle in the canvas besides the start brite? I’m worried to use that in case of the waterproofing issue.

Great tips! Only thing I would caution against is using a magic eraser on the vinyl windows, you risk making them hazy over time as a magic eraser is basically sandpaper.

we just found your channel and it has been very helpful in so many ways. We purchased a 2013 Flagstaff HW27KS but it was from someone who never used it so they could not give us any tips. The manual does not explain about the water system. Any information you can provide would be much appreciated. Thank you

New pop up owner here! If I’m using block leveling, presuming you only are ever leveling one side, do you just chock the other side to prevent any forward/backward movement?

i need help with finding a left motor for my camper can you please help me

Great video!

How do I access the air conditioner filter? Thank you!

So I am trying to install this same converter on my Jayco Jay Series 806 pup. On the old Elixir the 30a shore power hot (black) was connected to the breaker bar. On this new converter there is no such connection. Or am I missing that? Where do I connect the AC hot from the 30a shore to the converter?

Thanks alot I found my fridge had been on when I was plugged into the 30amp but the right switch was on, not the large green one. I'm not using the fridge, so I turned them both off

How did you fix the roof crack???

I just got a starcraft spacemaster that the person just spent a significant amount to renew it and they left it sitting for a couple of years and mice got in and did alot of damage. I got it for dirt cheap so Im going to redo the inside and replace all the cabinets with hardwood ones that I will build also I will make all new cushions and replace mattresses.

I wish you would talk about what you’re doing and why 😢

I wonder if using lock tight on the bolts would be a good idea to keep the bolts from moving so much

I feel cool, thanks man!

Thanks for the video

Just got a new (to me 2019 jayco sport) pop up camper, it doesn’t have AC but does have AC prep. I tried using a couple different portable AC’s in the pop up and neither worked to cool it down at all, do the actual roof mounted AC units make a difference and would it be worth the investment? I’m anticipating it will cost $1,500 for the unit and professional installation but sitting on the fence on if it will work if the portable units didn’t? The portable units I have vent the hot exhaust out of the window btw, I’ve used the same units in a tent and they did fantastic so I’m so confused why they wouldn’t work in this set up

Great information! Thank you.

Man these videos have been a great help!! Do you have social media where I can reach out with some questions I have about our camper?

Hey. Question. Popup has a rotten board on the inside at the bunk head attachment. How do I replace that?

If you're just seeing this vid like I am... Great channel BTW Just bought a 19 Clipper to replace the old basic pup. Manual roof cranks (tongue mounted) get wonky fast, and being "long in the tooth" I replaced it with an electric from Anchor Express. Easy to install and operates well. Worth the expense IMHO. Now we'll see how long it lasts.

Thanks for this video. I have the same Jayco Select but a couple of years older than yours and I thought maybe the issue of getting the tires out of the wheel wheels was unique to mine. Even after deflating the tires I have still had a little difficulty getting the tires off. Also, I'd like to share a little story with everyone out there so you can use me as the example of a "lesson learned the hard way" and avoid it yourself. Last fall when returning from a camping trip I had a tire failure on the interstate. The entire tread face of the tire came off and, fortunately for me and my wife the tire did not deflate immediately. I was able to safely pull off onto the shoulder and about two minutes after stopping, the tire started going down and was completely flat within five minutes. As luck would have it, my spare's valve stem had dry rotted and it was useless and, I say "as luck would have it" because the tire on the other side probably would have gone flat within a few miles. Turns out that both tires were nearly ten years old and, even though they both had lots of tread and looked good, they were not. So, don't be a cheapskate like me and try to make your tires last longer than they are really intended to. I got very lucky that there was no damage to the camper and even luckier that the tire didn't go flat immediately. I've seen plenty of video of trailer tires going flat with some very dangerous consequences.

Love it!!

What is the consequence of raising the roof too high?

Another tip for cooling coolers, is the night before you plan on leaving, bring the coolers inside, turn open upside down over the floor vents (if you are using your home ac). The vents will cool the cooler down enough that will help keep things cool. You can also use PVP 3 or 4 inch pipes, glue an end cap on one ends, then fill 3/4 full with salt water and glue another cap on top. Stick in freezer, and use them in the cooler. They will last longer than frozen water gallons and do not take as much room. Video the videos and am looking for my first pop up camper (moving from tent to camper - age...lol). Your videos have been a huge help. Happy Camping!!
