Let’s face it, owning an RV is expensive; particularly for those who enjoy putting their RV’s on Pennsylvania’s open road at any point throughout the year. As more people have adapted to the RV lifestyle, it has become increasingly important that RV owners enjoy their RVs in a safe manner by employing regular safety tips that will save them money all year long, such as the three tips indicated below:<\/p>\n
1. Propane Safety Tips<\/strong><\/p>\n Do not paint propane tanks with a dark color because it absorbs the sun’s rays a lot easier, which causes an explosion due to overheating. The stove, oven or heater burners should not be lit while traveling or refuel while using propane based appliances (or while the engine, is running.)<\/p>\n Have a certified dealer check your propane tank an on-going regular basis – particularly before long road trips to identify broken or leaking lines. Lastly, have a propane gas detector installed<\/p>\n 2. Take Caution When Using the Brakes<\/strong><\/p>\n Since RVs trailers use air brakes as opposed to hydraulic brakes used in automobiles, they feel different from automobiles, which causes a slight delay when the brakes are hit. Some RV drivers believe the solution is to hit the breaks hard and fast. However, this causes an abrupt stop, putting everyone’s safety at risk.<\/p>\n 3. Familiarize Yourself with Your RV’s Height<\/strong><\/p>\n Some of the more common RV related accidents are due to RV drivers running into bridges and overpasses because they simply forget the height of their RVs while driving. To prevent this from happening, make note of your RV’s height and exact clearance and leave it in view at all times to void such occurrences.<\/p>\n For these and other related RV safety tips that will save you money all year long, please visit Saucon Insurance Agency online today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Let’s face it, owning an RV is expensive; particularly for those who enjoy putting their RV’s on Pennsylvania’s open road at any point throughout the year.
