Need help choosing your RV accessories?

cutlooserv — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 01:41:35 +0000

Everyone is so different! Just like buying a house we all have different needs and we like to add our own personal touches. The same can be said for when buying an RV. Accessories will play an important role in customizing your dream home so it does what you need it to when you are ‘out on the road’.

There are so many options: Do you want your RV to be fully self-contained, are you going to free camp, do you want single or double beds? And what about the TV, Telephone and Internet requirements? These are all important considerations in today’s world.

At Cut Loose we have installed, as standard equipment, many features like water filters, ducted air conditioning, pull-out pantries, led lighting and a CD stereo system with MP3 capabilities. Other items are recommended once we know more about your proposed travelling lifestyle.

To make it easier for you to customise your RV to your needs here are the most popular factory fitted items. For the kitchen it is the slide-out barbeque and the washing machine, for the lounge the gas powered heater, for the outdoors the annex walls, slide-out topper and security door. And in the electric domain, solar panels and generators are regular choices. Waste options include portable waste tanks and 12 volt mascerator pumps and for effortless and confident towing the reversing camera and towing workshops are very worthwhile.

Our new showroom at Burleigh Heads now has a large range of options and accessories available for inspection. Call Garry on 07 5520 7575 for more information.

TUV Rheinaland, one of the world’s leading quality certifiers, have recently developed a new testing methodology to simulate environmental factors over a long period of time – including temperature, wind, hail, salt mist, dust, sand, rain, dew, frost, fog.

The long-term sequential testing goes above and beyond the requirements of the IEC 61215 standard and takes approximately 9 months. With many manufacturers now promising up to 25 years of life for a solar panel, the long term sequential test provides end users with more confidence their choice of panel will stand the test of time.

So far, only Kyocera have passed the long-term sequential test. Cut Loose currently has some great deals on Kyocera 135W panels. Call (07) 55207575 to find out more.
