What is a Caravan / Camper service?

Basic Service

Warranty Service

This is a full system check over, whilst the Van is still under manufacturer’s warranty.  Have a qualified person check over your vehicle, before the end of your warranty period.  This allows you to have all works completed prior to the end of your warranty.  This service includes anything minor that we can fix on the way through the service.  All works are well documented for your records.

Vehicle weight checks

Your tow vehicle and Caravan has specific weights in which its design was engineered to.  With our scale system, we check axle weights of the combination.  All vehicles have a “GVM” (Gross Vehicle Mass) and “GCM” (Gross Combination Mass), and vans follow this suit with “ATM / GTM” Aggregate / Gross Trailer Mass.  Vans are also listed with a “Tow Ball” weight specification.  All of the above effect how the vehicle tows, and is paramount for vehicle safety.  It is written into the PDS of all insurance disclaimers, that if any of these weights are exceeded, Insurance policies are void.  Muegge Mechanical will not just check your weights, but tailor a solution if adjustments are needed, to ensure conformity is met.  This also takes into account any modifications or additions done to any vehicles.  Simply adding Jerry Cans and an extra gas bottle to the trailer A Frame, can dramatically change tow ball weights and ride characteristics.  These all need to be taken into account against the manufacturer’s specifications.

Fresh Water system Hyperchlorination

Recommended every 3-5 years.  Kills all bacteria and algae’s that are present with in the Fresh Water System.  Commercially, this is a requirement every 24 months.  When a water tank sits idle, Bacteria can grow in the system.  This service includes adding chemical to the tank, and then topping off the system.  All fresh water outlets are flushed to ensure chemical is present, and left for some time to let the chemical work.  System is then fully flushed, drained and refilled, to ensure chemical levels are back within a safe level for human consumptions.
