Called in the pros

Well this week we made some real progress, but we did have to call in the pros. We had a specialist come in to service the AC and Fridge. Even though I hate to admit it, I am not a refridgeration expert, so we called in RBI Mobile RV repair. Roger is a very knowledgeable person, and the rates are well worth the cost. This is one piece of advice I can give. Even when working on a budget, like we are, it is better to pay someone who can fix it right the first time. Than to spend hours and still possibly have to pay for repairs. Roger got the AC working and checked the fridge, as well as provided wonderful information. Just be sure to check some references for the person you are going to have work on your RV. The good news is that all the major appliances work, we now have good AC, fridge gets cold, and the water heater heats the water. We did have to replace the heating element in the water heater. I want get into the details because this is a very simple fix, turn off power, remove two wires on the heating element, unscrew the element, and replace in the same order. Remembering to fill the water heater and check for leaks before turning on the power. We also finished all the minor issues. Keep checking because next week I will have an interesting project.
The best news is that we are on schedule to move July 23, 2011. Coming up I will be showing you how to repair damage to the corners, replace the brakes, and replacing an awning.
Have fun and Happy RVing.
