RV Parts Buying Guide

Having a few spare RV parts around can make maintenance work far easier. Of course, it isn’t always easy to determine which parts you’ll need. That’s why the experts at Camp Life RV have created this convenient RV parts buying guide.

RV Spare Parts for the Gas System

LP Gas Regulator

Your RV’s LP gas regulator controls the flow of propane from the gas tank to the appliances. It serves several important functions, such as keeping your fridge cold and warming up water.  The good news is that it’s fairly easy to spot an LP gas regulator malfunction, so as long as you keep a spare part on hand, you should be able to fix it. Just watch your gas range to see if the flame appears higher or lower than it should be.

RV Spare Parts for the Water System

Water Pump Parts

Pump valve malfunctions are usually caused by debris finding their way into an RV’s water system. If you start to notice a problem with your RV’s water pressure, take a look at the water pump.

Thermocouples

Your RV’s water heater needs a working thermocouple in order to function. We highly recommend keeping a few spare thermocouples around, especially if you plan to do some cold-weather camping.

RV Spare Parts for the Electrical System

Fuses

Replacing a fuse is fairly straightforward, but you’ll need a compatible fuse in order to make the repair. That’s why you should consult your owner’s manual to ensure that you purchase the correct fuse.

Lightbulbs

We recommend keeping a few light bulbs on hand in case a light goes out mid-trip. While fluorescent bulbs give off more light, they’re also slightly easier to break, so some RV owners choose to purchase incandescent bulbs.
