When planning vacations with your RV, consider various things to ensure your safety and comfort, such as staying cool in the heat. This is especially important if you live in your camper full time or plan extended holidays frequently. Read on for tips for navigating hot weather while RV camping.
Maintain Your A/C
It’s important to clean your A/C vents and output regularly to keep them dust-free and ensure they deliver cold air efficiently. It’s also a good idea to service your A/C unit at least once a year to ensure proper functioning.
Minimize Use of Heat Sources
Televisions, computers, incandescent lights, and kitchen appliances like ovens and stoves can suck up electricity and cause your camper to overheat. Try to limit the use of your electronics during the day by switching off lamps and opting for cold foods like sandwiches and salads instead of hot items. You can save the cooking for the evening or use an outdoor grill instead.
Ventilate the Space
Good ventilation in your RV will help you be comfortable, so set up fans in your camper to get the air circulating and close off any rooms and vents that aren’t in use when running your air-conditioning unit. This will help guide the cool air to wherever you are.
