We like the roll up vinyl shades that came with our GeoPro camper but we didn't have the camper long before we realized there were going to be two things that we would have to repair on and off. The first was the shade pulling out from the bar at the bottom if you tugged on it to hard. The second was sometimes finding the tension was off and the shade would not roll back up.
We have seen others online talking about these issues so we thought we would share the quick fixes for both these issues. We also found the manufacturer of the shades - Irvine Shade and Door and will link their website below that has additional information on these shades.
As the year goes on, we will be adding small repairs that we encounter during the year or we will go back over a previous repair and add it to the playlist so you can easily access.
We hope you find this series helpful and as always - if you have any questions please reach out!
Thanks for watching, happy camping and safe travels!

Some of our Favorite Camping and RV Items
Rhino Flex RV Hose. We have used this brand for the 5 years we have been RVing. We like it for the GeoPro because it fits in the carrier under the camper.

Anderson Levelors. We have used a variety of levelors over the years but once we found these, we stopped looking! We only need one for the GeoPro as it is a single axle and makes set up so much easier.

Zero G Water Hoses. We have two of these - a blue one for fresh and a gray for flushing for the black tank. We bought them 4 years ago and they are so much easier to store than a coiled up hose. We take the fresh water home after each trip and sanitize and dry so it is ready for the next trip.

Happy Campers Sewer Treatment. We have used this for years and recently ran out on a trip. Had to buy the drop in packets and remembered why we went to Happy Campers!
amzn.to/3iFYi5H
Shower Head Upgrade - Oxygenics Fury. One thing most campers have in common? A cheap plastic showerhead! We love the Fury - installed it in both our campers.
amzn.to/3DiFe6R
Progressive Industries Surge Protector. We luckily have never needed it to protect the camper from a surge but this has alerted us to problems with campground wiring. Have been using for the past 5 years.

Waterless Car Wash Kit. We have used this for the past two years. Its great for when you don't have access to water and it works on both our camper and tow vehicle.
amzn.to/36Oz2HK
Wrap It Storage Straps. We bought these a year ago and are constantly finding more uses for them.
amzn.to/3JLRMX0
Tire Covers. We bought these almost three years ago and keep them on our tires when the camper is in storage. They have held up to UV great and help keep the sun off our tires.
