What to expect from motorhome servicing

If you consider undergoing habitation servicing, you will need to know the costs and what checks to expect. The following are some of them:

• Damp. What is potentially harmful to us, is thoroughly checked for. When carrying out testing, the damp report determines whether it needs immediate action or not.
• Electric systems. This check is crucial as motorhome’s require working systems to make them liveable. You can expect testing of lights, circuit breakers, sockets and other systems. Furthermore, a check for the RCD trip time is necessary.
• Water system. Every tap undergoes testing, as well as valve seals. Moreover, waste water outlets and anti freeze levels are checked.

In addition to the checks above, the service involves a fire, gas and ventilation test. Do keep in mind, some centres don’t test specific appliances such as air conditioning and fridges. Therefore it’s important to ask what’s included, for your peace of mind.
