RV TIPS & TRICKS

Protect Your RV Year-Round with a Quality Cover

Your RV only needs a cover in winter, right? It’s like giving it an overcoat to protect it from the wind, snow and the cold.

Although it’s certainly true that you need to protect your RV during the winter months, a cover has the advantage of being a much more economical alternative to renting a storage space.

But beyond the harsh effects of winter, a cover is actually your RV’s best defense against all the elements. Whether it’s the scorching summer sun, the biting winter cold, or the relentless spring rains, a well-fitted cover can safeguard your investment. 

Sun, Wind, and Rain:

A breathable RV cover is essential for protecting against the sun’s harmful UV rays, which can fade your RV’s exterior and cause cracking. Waterproof materials shield your RV from rain, snow, and sleet, preventing water damage and mold growth. A tight fit ensures the cover won’t flap in the wind, reducing wear and tear.

Keep in mind that nothing can negatively impact the value of your RV more than water damage and can easily cost the most to repair.

Winter Wonderland:

Winter can be brutal on your RV. A heavy-duty cover with excellent insulation properties is crucial to protect against ice,snow, and freezing temperatures. By creating a barrier, the cover helps maintain a consistent temperature inside your RV, preventing pipes from freezing and interior components from cracking.

Spring Cleaning:

Even in spring, your RV needs protection. Dust, pollen, and tree sap can accumulate, damaging your RV’s exterior. A dust-proof cover helps keep your RV clean and reduces the time spent on cleaning before your next adventure.

Custom Fit for Optimal Protection:

For maximum protection, consider a custom-fitted RV cover. These covers are tailored to your specific RV model, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal coverage. A size chart can help you determine the correct size if you opt for a standard cover or contact us.

Easy Installation and Removal:

A quality RV cover should be easy to install and remove. Look for features like elastic hems, adjustable straps, and reinforced tie-downs for a secure fit. Proper installation and removal are essential to prevent damage to both the cover and your RV.

Additional Considerations:

  • Ventilation: Ensure your cover has adequate ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.
  • Material: Choose a cover made from durable, weather-resistant materials.
  • Storage: Store your cover in a dry, cool place when not in use.
  • Maintenance: Regularly inspect your cover for tears or damage.

A Smart Investment
