RV How to are a great way to learn quickly and effortlessly about RV’s. This is a great idea even before you’ve even purchased your RV. There is a lot to know about owning an RV. Probably not much more than owning a house, but they are NOT care-free. You have to know something. I thought it would be really helpful to assemble a set of how-to videos on different subjects related to RV’s. Sometimes, the video galleries might have something in them which don’t apply to the How To subject, but I wanted to build these from dynamic searches of videos on the Internet so that the content stayed fresh and if something new and cool was developed it would show up on this gallery.
I know I have used this library many times. Sometimes, you just aren’t sure whether or not something should work one way or the other – a great example is the automatic switchover valve on the propane tanks. I found the pages for propane tanks and within one or two minutes, I had a pretty good idea on how things worked. These pages are just such a great resource.

Irma Morawietz says
Hi,
I would like to know, why my wedding ceremony was on your website.
Please remove it~
(Irma & Scott’s wedding)
Marlan "Living Small" RV Guy says
Hi Irma,
I take the name of the RV park (my site is rv52.com) and do a Youtube search for videos related to that name to try to help people find out more about the area and the park.
In your case, your wedding shows up on the youtube search “rose bay marina” .
I did a search for “Rose Bay Marina” directly into youtube.com and your video shows up as a FEATURED VIDEO on youtube!
In fact, your video is accessible via youtube to anyone in the entire world and it will show up on all sorts of searches.
If you are truly concerned about privacy, you might consider changing the settings of your youtube video to private.
Good luck and congratulations,
Marlan

hi! i am looking for help with repairing/replacing a section of fthe flooring, subfloor in me jayco travel trailer. i’d like to find a video that would walk me through the process. i downloaded the shematic for the walls and flooring from jayco, but i would like more detail and step instruction. if you know of a video that fits my need, i’d appreciate hearing about it. at some point, there wasa small water leak that evidently found its way through a screw or staple hole in the vinyl [by the toilet], got under the vinyl, and soaked the subfloor, and caused dryrot. so, i need to cut it out and replace/repair it. as a 68 year old disabled vet, i would appreciate any assistance you can render. thanks in advance– g.
Marlan at Rv52 says
George,
Let me look and see if I can come up with some ideas/vids.
Marlan
Marlan at Rv52 says
I tried one dealer and they said that you ought to get quotes for such a repair.
But I do see lots of people do these repairs.
I went ahead and made a video gallery here: http://rv52.wpengine.com/how-to-video/rv-floor-repair-how-to-videos/

Ralph Hennie says
Hi. Looking for a wiring diagram. To or install 50 amp services to driveway from the house panel to plug in RV when we ar3 home. Have pole, box just need wiring diagram and wire size recommendation Thanks
Marlan at Rv52 says
Hello Ralph. I’ve not done that personally and don’t have that info. On the 50 Amp, definitely you are bringing out the 2 hots and a neutral – but electricians just know this stuff off of the top of their head and I think are worth the money for something like this. It sounds like a great idea and much better than having extra unused rooms in the house. Good luck!
