In the video I discuss leaks that can happen while your are away, and yes you can turn your water off each time you go out, but that does not solve leaks that occur while you are at the RV and don't even know there is a leak until something bad happens. Please watch our previous video in which we discuss this very thing. You can find it here: th-cam.com/video/mamYk5nQ100/w-d-xo.html
Very interesting. I’m a bit paranoid so I turn off the water before leaving my rv but I notice a lot of rvers don’t and this device would really be useful. On an unrelated note, I have a small class c and I’ve found that my water pressure isn’t as good on city as it is when I pump water into my tank and use my water pump. What is your opinion? Glad to see more content from you guys.
If you watch our previous video on water leaks I talk about a slow leak we had from a fitting under our kitchen sink. It was probably there for a week or so and we didn't know until the wood under the sink was saturated water was dripping out from the cabinet. The point is that water leaks don't always happen when you are away and turn off the water. As for water pressure, we found that it varies from campground to campground. Our pressure regulator is adjustable and has a gauge so we can adjust it to try to get 50psi. Where we currently are the pressure is low in the morning when there is high usage and we usually will turn the pump on to assist.
@@RVIntoRetirement when I mentioned turning the water off when I leave I was just referring to the accessory you have that shuts the water off. As for the sensors I would definitely get something like that regardless because as you mentioned you never know how and when a leak can occur. Regarding water pressure, when you do turn on your pump for added boost is it pumping water from your tank or the water coming in through the city connection?
@@barryholiday8998 My best guess is that it's coming from my fresh water tank since the level goes down over time. Our RV does not have a selector switch like many do to choose between fresh water tank and city water. I would assume if you do have that switch and it's on city water that you water pump boosts the pressure coming in.
Well the sensors can alert you to a water leak of any type, in your example rain. There is no automatic solution or shut off to that, but the alert should get your attention to get to the RV and find out the cause and take action. For example if you are storing the RV you can put a sessor near the skylight (one of the more common rain leak area's), or near your slides.

Great advice. Especially for those people that don't shut their water off when they leave the RV.
No doubt, water leaks cause a lot of damage.
How cool is that!! Wish I watched this a couple weeks ago lol!! Think we may just switch!! Thank you Jim!! Always great info!!
You bet!

Not even worried about this kind of leak. My question is what do you do if rain starts coming inside the RV when you're away?
