Great video. 1) If you use a garden hose to spray the A/C coil, be careful as some hoses have enough pressure to bend the fins with the water stream. 2) The guts of those furnaces are only held in the sheet metal box with a single screw at the front, so it is pretty easy to unhook the propane line, unplug the wire harness and just slide the furnace out for inspection and cleaning. I found lots of saw dust and junk behind my furnace from when the RV was assembled. I was also able to add insulation to make it much quieter.

[@TimmyMoza]

Really great advice. Might also add to service your slide out and seals…. Perfect time for that too….

[@rickstills6716]

We have two Golden Retrievers. I have no choice but to remove the floor vent covers and vacuum them out periodically LOL

[@CollinsRoadTheatres]

Great tips. I never would have thought about doing the electric heater so glad you suggested it!

[@JJ-Journeys]

Great tips for RV care. Timing for this video was perfect as we move into the fall/winter months. Thanks Jared, safe travels.

[@scottd143]

Thanks Jared, I am about to do my fall maintenance and these are great tips.

[@RobertHasty]

I put 4 inch eternabond tape overlapping over all of my self leveling sealent on roof. Never have to worry about cracks or holes. Always good to clean the roof and check it anyway.

[@nathanurick8320]

I really appreciate your honesty about rving.

[@marktracy]

Great tips! It is a perfect time for those tasks we tend to put off. Thanks for the reminder!

Splendid video Jared!! Love this KZbin channel!! Eternabond, is amazing for the roof. Saves on calking applications! I periodically check my roof every two months to make sure my roof is in tip top shape!!

[@SaltyVetAdventures]

Some awesome tips that people may not think about! Great video (as always).

Perfect timing on this video, it was in the 90s here this week, our next trip next week will have nights in the mid-40s though. The bottom really is dropping out here.

Thanks

[@frugaldiyhandyguy9295]

Great information. I will be doing some of those after my next trip. 1 thing to add off topic that most people in general don't know and my wife learned the hard way. Some of those cans of compressed air are actually flammable. Look at the label. They become flame throwers with an ignition source. For my wife it was a running paper shredder.

[@AllAboutRVs]

Yes that would be shocking to find out that way.

[@neilevenden3481]

I am really fortunate that I can check my RV Roof, just by looking out my window, where my computer is. The RV is in the driveway, right below me!

[@dougfresh1341]

Haha, we do too. I pull out the 2nd floor window and step right on to the roof in my socks to work on it. 😁

[@neilevenden3481]

@@dougfresh1341 I could almost do that, if I parked a little closer to the house.

[@dougfresh1341]

@@neilevenden3481 Use a ladder between the window and the roof. 😂😂😂

[@neilevenden3481]

Any more tips, newbie here, soaking in a;l information I can get, Thanks for the tips!

[@BobKeefe]

Great tips. 👍😃 I wonder why you don’t put something like a foam filter in your floor vents to keep the crud out?

[@PAWS4U]

Great video!!!! What product(s) do you use to clean the roof?

[@carolsmite]

Where did you get your round screens for the furnace exhaust intake? I looked on your amazon list and didn't see them

[@bw6078]

I liked them as well. If you click the "more" word under the video description he lists the screens used from amazon.

[@tomballard4794]

I put floor vent covers on my floor vents. Keeps dirt out and if you need heat they just come right off. I'm also going to try a screen over my refrigerator plane on the outside to keep the mud wasp out.

[@AllAboutRVs]

Good advice on the vent cover

[@DebraJ404]

Just got new trailer. Timely video for starting good habits. I don't see the insect screens for the furnace in your store.

[@EvansOmniTrainer]

Jared this is a great video. On the exterior furnace door, in your video I saw you replacing the door after cleaning but not using any type of insulated tape or sealant for waterproofing around the exterior furnace door. Is this similar for each brand of RV or do some require the application of an insulated tape or sealant when reinstalling the exterior furnace door? Thank you for your great videos.

[@chadkoller7809]

You always put out great info. We just purchased the Intech OVR Expedition and pick it up March 3rd. It’s not a walkable roof. Intech says to lay a piece of plywood up there to disperse the weight. Could you look at the specs of the all aluminum frame and tell me if you would be comfortable doing that? Thanks

[@drs3055]

I watch everyone and sometimes 3 and 4 times! You are great teacher. What is this thing called in the furnace called a “Salles” (sp). How do I check it? Thanks

[@alison1jane]

I am wondering the same... "sail switch" or "cell switch"?

[@rhettharrelliii9082]

Is there a special soap you use to clean roof or just dish soap?

[@TwistedOff]

👍

[@davidferdinandsen7993]

Chlorine. Tabs ok to use for ac drain to take care of algae? Yes or no

[@techguy7987]

What cleaner do you use to clean your roof?

[@explorationsrenovations5982]

What? You didn’t have your compressor with you? Jared I’m surprised at you 😂😊

[@tonywalls3473]

What system you have on your roof?

[@diveflag938]

I have an issue we just cleaned our ACs about 2 months ago now all of a sudden our main AC started freezing up! Not a clue why, and out of no were. We live in South FL full time RV over a year 2021 alpha wolf.

[@chriscarter7182]

Apologies for going off topic from this video, but, you have 10 solar panels on your roof, they appear to be all monocrystalline but from different manufacturer's. Are there issues or concerns regarding the mix and match of different solar panels? I'm asking because I'm currently spending a huge amount of time on the Victron website studying schematics and other confusing details to eventually install an M+2 2-120 system in my rv.

[@chriskibodeaux9818]

Why would there be?!

[@beetbyagirllowes2636]

Question : you are cleaning out your water heater (atwood/dometic) and the end of the camco cleaner/wand blows off & now is inside the water heater, what do you do? it appears the entire kitchen has to come out to get to the back. thanks, your biggest fan!

[@AllAboutRVs]

We have a tankless so we clean ours a bit different but if the wand is stuck in there I would try an inspection camera you can stick in there and a small grabbing tool to get it out.

[@karenclark4004]

This happened to us. After many frustrating hours of using a camera and a grabber we finally thought to add more water while watching with the camera. That allowed the wand piece to float high enough that it was near the drain hole and we were able to grab it with the alligator type grabbers. Needless to say we will never use those plastic wands again, ordered a metal version.

[@beetbyagirllowes2636]

thank you

[@patriciahogan4705]

Please tell us the manufacturer of the RV in this video.

[@crodriguez8228]

Why not use a vacuum instead of canned air on the inside of the rig?

[@AllAboutRVs]

Vacuum can’t get all the dust out from inside the heater components. It’s best to use an air compressor outside.

[@garysworderon5315]

I have a Question : I know that for filth wheel campers a long bed pickup was required . Is that still so ?

[@mikeludwig4315]

You can also do it with a 6'6 bed, they say to get a sliding hitch but I never use it and I can still almost back at 90 degrees. They clip the front corners on the newer campers so you can make tight corners.

[@Julian-do7bv]

Lots of people tow with short beds just watch the corners so you dont damage anything

[@glenf4115]

Thanks Jared, always great tips. Why not a vacuum with brush attachment to clean out the electric fireplace? Canned dusters usually contains difluoroethane. Some use tetrafluoroethane and tetrafluoropropene.

[@davidpatrick1813]

I like to tell my customers that "maintenance maintains it doesn't repair".

[@frugaldiyhandyguy9295]

Nice quote. How about " Maintenance maintain, reducing repairs ".

[@AllAboutRVs]

Yes maintenance is great! Love the quotes.

[@suebell2214]

L.p.

[@iair-conditiontheoutsideai3076]

I still don't understand why the RV industry still uses those garbage ac units. Time for 2 way mini split heat pumps to be installed on RVs.

[@robv4053]

They are on several higher end models.
