If you have ever owned an RV, you know that using them is one of the most exciting things that you can do.
- However, I have taken it one step further and have decided to move into my RV full-time.
While I definitely enjoy the freedom of living in an RV, there are definitely sacrifices that have to be made when you are living in a space that small. For instance, the central air conditioner does not work very well. Sure, most people love the central air conditioners in their RV, but I have discovered that I typically have a hard time doing anything when my central air conditioner is running. For instance, you absolutely cannot cook and use the microwave while the central air conditioner is running. However, the hardest part about owning an RV is trying to heat it. I have a furnace in my RV, and the furnace heats up pretty well. I am lucky that the furnace still works because this furnace is definitely old. However, I have been struggling with my furnace a lot due to the poor insulation of the trailer. I lose a ton of heat from my trailer, and the furnace has a hard time keeping up. I also constantly have to worry about my water pipes freezing. I have managed to insulate the bottom of my trailer with hay bales, but it isn’t good enough. I also have to use a space heater in one place just to supplement the loss of heat. I have discovered that RVs just weren’t made to be used full-time in the winter.
