Converting an entertainer coach for recreational use



The standard 12-bunk entertainer coach floor plan does not always work for recreational or family travel, but did you know that is easy and economical to remodel your new bus to better suite your needs and lifestyle? Installing larger kitchens, adding a shower, or building out a rear stateroom are all common updates that we can perform on your coach. If the bulk of your modifications can be done within the "Bunk room" area, your new coach can be converted to your exact specifications for an economical price. Common conversions include keeping three bunks for extra sleeping capacity, turning three bunks into a large shower room, and turning the last rack of bunks into closet space with a washer/ dryer combo. Often the rear lounge is converted into a queen bed stateroom. Cost varies depending on materials used and we can match most interior colors of your bus for a seamless look. We can provide craftsman and technicians that can perform the "fluff and puff" that may be needed to improve your bus or handle the logistics of a major remodel. Busforsale.com can provide the bus conversion and remodeling service assistance you need after the sale.

Time to Winterize your coach


Its that time of the year again…time to winterize your bus to protect the water and cooling system from freezing temperatures. In addition to pumping the plumbing system full of non-toxic RV antifreeze, here are a few tips to consider:
-Install a water heater by-pass kit to avoid filling with antifreeze
-Remove any inline water filters
-Drain all holding tanks completely including fresh water, grey and black tanks
-Be sure to add rv antifreeze to all the drain traps in sinks and showers and the toilet
-Don't forget to check any outside faucets or showers, and ice makers
-If your water heater is electric be sure the element is turned off
- Be sure to check your main engine coolant, generator coolant and any diesel-fired heaters for proper winter antifreeze protection



This checklist is a basic guide that was intended to assist you in winterizing your RV. As with many other checklists it would be impossible to cover every RV. It is extremely important that you read your owner’s manuals for unit specific winterizing guidelines.
