How to Repair Water Lines in an RV

RV waterlines are generally less robust than household waterlines, and they have a greater potential for wear due to freezing.This means that the owner of the RV must be more proficient in using the basic pipes than the owner of the House, so as not to keep them paying for expensive repairs for leaking water pipes.Description difficulty: easily turn off the pump of RV, open the faucet at the leaking place, and drain the water pipe.Use the knife of the plastic pipe or the PVC saw of the PVC pipe to cut the damaged part.Cut the new part of the pipe or pipe into the same length as the damaged part for replacement.This may not be necessary for plastic pipes with a large amount of slack.Make up the water line.For plastic tubes with a lot of slack, you can do this with one fitting.Accessories for plastic pipes are usually pushedin or screw-Various, so simply put the ends of the disconnection into a fitting.For plastic pipes without slack, use the two fittings attached to the end of the cut-off pipe and the new pipe section inserted between them.For PVC pipes, use two fittings and a new pipe section again and fasten them all together with PVC adhesive.If PVC adhesive is used, allow it to dry overnight.Turn on the pump, turn on the faucet around the repair area, and check if the leak continues.Your accessory may be defective or you have not detected another leak.Prompt and warning articles written by Edwin Thomas have been written since 1997.His work appears in a variety of online publications, including Black Watch, Proboxing-Fans and othersThomas, a travel blogger, editor and writer, traveled from Argentina to Vietnam to find stories.He holds a master\'s degree in international affairs from an American university.
