Summer is here, the kids are out of school and it is time to get the RV out to set out on your family summer vacation.<\/h2>\n

Clear The Air would like to share some RV safety tips<\/strong><\/em> everyone should know when they set out on their trip this summer.<\/p>\n

Remember to always use Clear The Air\u2019s Odor Eliminator<\/a>s in your RV to eliminate any odor you may have. Our product works great with refrigerator odors, pet urine or feces odor and any type of musty mildew odor.<\/p>\n

  1. Batteries \u2013 Summer heat can wreak havoc on your RV system. Having backup batteries is extremely important so you don\u2019t get stranded somewhere.<\/li>\n
  2. Generator \u2013 Use your coach air conditioners when driving rather than your engine (dash) air. Using your coach air conditioner or heat pump will provide good climate control and it will force you to exercise the generator under load.<\/li>\n
  3. Keep Doors Closed \u2013 Cabinet doors can pop open when you are traveling and especially if you cross over bumpy terrain. Make sure your cabinet doors are closed and in the locked position.<\/li>\n
  4. Trash \u2013 Minimize the use of disposables. Mix your own cold drinks from powders, and assign a mug to each family member rather than using paper cups. Discard excess packaging at home.<\/li>\n
  5. Nature \u2013 In hot weather, use natural shade, awnings and canvas covers. In cold weather, park where the RV will be protected from north and west winds.<\/li>\n
  6. Driving \u2013 Allow more time to brake, change lanes, and merge onto a busy highway because big vehicles take more time to accelerate and slow down than small ones.<\/li>\n
  7. First Aid \u2013 Make sure to have a first aid kit packed and easily accessible. It is also a good idea to have extra phone chargers, flash lights, paper and pens, and bug repellant.<\/li>\n
  8. Campsite \u2013 Survey your assigned site. Be sure there are no low-hanging branches or other obstacles that will interfere with the RV. If you have a slideout or awning, be sure there is room on either side for those to fully extend.<\/li>\n
  9. Hookups \u2013 If you are hooked to a sewer connection, you can open the gray water tank valve to allow sink and shower water to drain directly into the sewer. It is the smaller of the two valves. Never leave the black water tank valve open.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
