Plumbing Repair Kit to Carry With you. Just in Case...

Silicone rescue tape will repair most leaks until they can be fixed thoroughly.

I went all summer with silicone tape wrapped around a leaky LPG hose swivel. The tape worked perfectly and solved the problem for several months.

My plumbing repair kit includes a washer for the garden hose connection. Actually, I think I may have 2 extras in my kit. And I have a replacement plug for my water heater, that I have never needed while out in the boonies.

RV plumbing is 1/2"

So whatever you put together get it in 1/2"

Along with that......water heater drain plug
1/2" NPT for Atwood
3/4" NOT for Suburban
Either OEM or CPCV due to temp ratings (NOT PVC!)

worry more about engine parts , than a water line. belts ,oil, dry gas,jumper cable extra long.small socket set 3/8ths four way screwdriver ,allen wrench set metric wrenchs and standard, more than this you need a repair shop.

I carry one of these and stainless steel wire

I do have some PEX tubing and sharkbite fittngs leftover from a recent plumbing add on I completed. So those are now in my goodies box in the compartment where I store all of the tools and other fix it stuff.

Like others have said most of the time I have to run to the hardware store for correct parts or mickey mouse (here's where the ClampTite Tool helps) something to get by until we reach civilization.

You could probably come up with an endless list of things to carry in an RV for emergencies - however I don't carry very much in the plumbing dept - few times I have had issues over the last 20 years I just turn off the water pump/hose connection - figure out what's wrong and head down to the hardware store to buy what I need.

A pair of channel lock pliers are sometimes handy on plumbing issues.

X2 and lean how they go together before hand, so the first time you mess with them is not on your back with a flashlight behind the water heater at some campground.

Lets see - 11 years and 91,000 miles of travel. Only plumbing issue was a slow drip from the kitchen faucet. Went to Home Depot when we got home and found the proper repair kit.

I don't see a reason to carry a bunch of parts that are easily available practically anywhere.

I do carry a spare serpentine belt, a quart of oil and a fuel filter as well as a few tools as a hedge against being stuck on the side of the road.

It might pay to carry a roll of X-Treme tape that sticks to itself and seals leaks in piping or joints on a temporary basis.
