this works really good on sheds does it work good on RVs?
NO we do not want to use that on the RV hey can we use this on the roof no you cannot use a metal
shovel on the roof of the RV what is the best tool to use well we're going to share that with you
hey I'm Angie I'm Ronda and we are Adventures in NoMadness so you said I couldn't use this metal
shovel on the roof no how about this plastic one uh not ideal no it has a metal edge but
uh we have found a really good tool to use on the roof and we're gonna go demonstrate that right now
this right here has uh turned out to be the best tool we could have found now this one right here
we just bought at Costco but I'll put a link to below to something that's similar in Amazon
but what we love about this one is telescopic so this one actually goes to about 58 inches or so
it's got nice soft bristles on one side removing the snow and it's got a really nice soft um
sort of rubber edge so it's really easy for bringing the snow off
the other side we use for the truck windows for scraping snow and ice off of but
we'll go demonstrate the correct way to remove snow off an RV roof but hey if you get value out

we love all your comments but a couple of tips for actually removing snow off the roof
all right well number one is you don't want to walk on an RV roof
with snow on it so the Escape Travel Trailer roofs aren't meant to be walked on anyway they're small
enough it's really easy to get up under with a ladder this ladder is really really uh stable
along here and uh you have to be very very careful uh because you got plastic up here I've used this
uh before the tarp I've used it directly on the solar panels completely safe I've used
it to remove snow off the uh the plastic ac cover and the vents and stuff so one of the
things to to really be careful of is the plastic it's really cold out here it's zero degrees today
and the plastic can be very brittle we have the tarp on here because it makes it extra easy to
just slide the snow all off and we can get we don't have all those nicks and crannies in here
so that's super super easy and basically I can use either side here
and just pull that snow right off and with the
the tarp it just slides right off here now if you do have a different type of RV
you still don't want to get on the roof so if you get a taller like an a-frame type ladder
and have someone hold it that'll be the best way reason is you know you got all these things
up here and you won't be able to see them in the snow it could be a really big fall hazard
well my last tip is get the snow off as soon as you can you don't want the snow to build up it's
gorgeous RVs look so cool with snow on them it's beautiful but it has been definitely the cause of
a lot of roof collapses and a lot of water damage and issues and RVs that I've seen up in Alaska
so you don't want to be the person that's got two or three feet of snow built up on top so
shovel it off scrape it off with this kind of a really cool brush and uh it's easier to do
it soon or too because the ice layers start to build up and then it gets really crusty like
it is a little bit we don't have that much up there but it makes it just a little bit harder
to get it off it's when it gets real crusty so thank you so much for watching and happy travels
