Owning and traveling in an RV is lots of fun. You can go where you want when you want on your own schedule. The only thing that can take the fun out of RV ownership is when you don’t understand how to protect yourself and your RV in the event something goes wrong, or if your personal safety is in jeopardy.
RVs are equipped with many safety features designed to protect you and your family, and it’s important that you understand what these safety features are and how they operate. That is my goal with this e-book course, to discuss how your RV is equipped to protect you, the RV owner, and to show you some things you can do to enhance safety when you are using your RV.
We’re going to discuss some very important safety topics like LP gas system safety, RV water system safety, RV electrical system safety, RV fire safety, carbon monoxide safety, and emergency escape plans. In addition to the safety features on the RV we are going to cover topics concerning your personal safety as well. Topics like: Getting there Safely, Travel Security, Emergency Weather Planning and more.
RV safety starts with the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association or RVIA seal. The oval shaped RVIA seal displayed on the exterior of the RV means that the RV manufacturer is in compliance with more than 500 safety requirements regarding electrical, plumbing, heating, and fire and life safety. These safety requirements are established under the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) A119.2 Standard for Recreation Vehicles.
Knowing that the RV was manufactured with safety in mind is a good start. Now let’s take a look at some of the safety equipment and features you’ll find on your RV.
