Leaving the NRVIA

I enjoyed working with NRVIA for a couple of years and thought it was a good fit for my business, but over time I found that they did not have the online training CEU’s directly related to inspections. I thought that over time they would build a library of inspection related CEU’s, and field related… Read More

Have you checked your battery cables lately?

Recently I had a client say that their fridge wouldn’t run very long on the inverter and several other things weren’t working for long on 12 volts / Coach batteries alone. They also said that they were getting unusual voltage readings on the charging meter, like 0 amps when plugged in.  When I arrived to… Read More

Suburban Water Heater Care

Well I let my sacrificial anode rod in my water heater go a lot longer than I should have, which can lead to early failure of the water heater or internal components and the tank rusting out.  So I let it go about 18 months or so and it should have been done at about… Read More

Black Tank Valve Problems

OK so usually the waste tank valves can be sticky or binding a bit and sometimes don’t close all the way, all this is fairly normal within reason, and often times these valves will get either easier to use over time as things wear in or harder to use because of things wearing out or… Read More
