Ok NOT! But how about absorption vs residential refrigerator.  I often get customers in with “I love” / “I hate” my “residential”/”absorption” refrigerator. Here is a “overview” of each well worth review if you are interested and/or preparing to purchase a new/different RV. Thanks to Dometic for the post.

Turn Up the AC!

Summer is heating up and when you’re camping, the last thing you want is your ac to quit on you. At Turbos RV, we understand that in the heat of summer, your air conditioner is your very best friend.So Turn Up the AC!

Whether it is a Dometic, Suburban, or anything in between, Turbos technicians are there for all your AC needs. Whether it’s dated back to 1955, or if it is the newest model, Turbo’s motto is always “repair before replace.”

We understand that repairing an ancient AC isn’t always the safest option, so Turbos RV can get you up to date with new products at great prices. In fact, we have a rig in our shop where Eric is not only updating the AC unit, but he is custom building a support system to make it look better than ever inside and out. So this Fourth of July, Kick back and relax with your cool Rv, and if it ever gets too warm for comfort, give Turbos Rv a call!

Employment Opportunity

We are gearing up for summer and are looking to expand our team! Turbo’s RV is searching for technicians that are not only skilled but have an interest in expanding their knowledge. We do not service drive lines or chassis, rather we are looking for a jack of all trades as far as RV functionality and equipment.

Beyond that however, we are only looking for someone who believes in being part of a team and taking care of our customers. We work in a laid back, fun environment, where the independence allows you to focus your time as you deem most efficient. That being said, the right technician for us must be able to troubleshoot, diagnose, and manage his time accordingly to maintain quality and timeliness and exceed our customer’s expectations.

Eric, the owner provides a wealth of knowledge and commitment to the work that is done here. We are looking for a technician who wants to take advantage of his expertise and can match the commitment to help our company grow. There is incredible and exciting potential for the right person to get in on the ground level and be a part of our expansion as a business.

“We’re Talking about Roofs again…Here’s Why”

So I know you hear us talk about roof inspections constantly. However, I assure you it’s not because we have this unfounded fascination with roofs. Rather, we have seen how detrimental it can be when neglected maintenance suddenly becomes thousands of dollars worth of damage.

Your rig is your home away from home. The disappointment of finding out that bad seals on your roof put the planned trip on hold is something we all want to avoid. Let’s do the math real quick…

A rubber roof replacement (depending on square footage) can range vastly, but has been known to exceed $5000.00 in parts and labor.

When it gets to the point that all of the roof seals need to be replaced, that service averages around $1,000.00

The standard cleaning and treating of a rubber roof typically costs under $500.00

ROOF INSPECTION ARE FREE WITH EVERY SERVICE!!!!!

Let’s face it, that whole “out of sight, out of mind” saying may have something to it. Here at Turbo’s RV, we hope by bringing up RV roof maintenance consistently you will become more aware of the true importance of taking care of your roof. Just because you are not looking at the roof of your RV every day does not mean we want to wait till something goes wrong before we inspect.

Checking your roof often helps prevent unnecessary water damage. Catching arising problems early saves money and stress. So, though we may talk often of roofs it’s really our customer we are thinking about.

Friendly advice from your friendly mobile RV technicians!

Spring Time is Almost Here!

With the promise of warm weather fast approaching we want to make sure your RV or trailer is as ready for an adventure as you are! With our schedule filling up fast, Turbo’s Mobile RV would like to ensure you have plenty of time to have your rig serviced before spring time trips. Just a few reminders of maintenance items that are wise to keep in mind before you head out:

– Dewinterization
– Axle Service (including wheel bearing pack)
– Roof Clean and Seal
– Plumbing Leak Test
– Battery Charging Test
– Any other known issues

Please do not hesitate to contact us at your earliest convenience so we can get you on the schedule for any services you may need. From all of us at Turbo’s RV, we hope this season brings you many smiles and we look forward to hearing from you soon!

Striving to Serve You Better

As our team continues to grow here at Turbo’s RV Service we are Striving to Serve You Better. One way we are doing this is by providing a more efficient office space at our local three bay shop in Monument. As many of you know we utilize an Airstream as our current office. While we love the Airstream and it has provided us with a wonderful work space, as our team so should our office space.

Therefore, before the spring break rush Eric the owner has been putting in nights and weekends to build a custom mezzanine office.  We will be able to have a new parts staging area to expedite technician job progress. The office will also allow several office personnel to have separate stations allowing for estimate, invoicing, and parts ordering to be more streamlined.

We will still have our notification sound so anytime you pull in to our shop we will be alerted plus, Eric will hook one of the screens directly into our camera system which will allow for a real time look at our building and driveways. So don’t be surprised if at your next in shop service you find that we come to you straight from the shop and not from our trailer office!

Feel free to take a look at our progress below, or stay tuned in to our Facebook Account to see the ongoing updates on the new office!
