When hooking up to water, Jacyo Class C motorhomes have a couple of settings.
Check out this video on how the system works.
City Water Connection, connection point on the right, is to connect your water hose to the outside spigot. Use the dial (use below) to adjust how you are using the water. The left water connector is Sewer Flush this is used ONLY to flush the black tank and must follow proper procedure, so you don’t shoot water into the RV!!
Normal is position 3 and 5. Normal is for when you want to use water onboard and NOT hooked up to an outside spigot. Water will be coming from your freshwater tank and will require the Water Pump to be ON to pull water from the freshwater tank.
City Tank Fill, position 1 & 6, is for filling the freshwater tank. You must be connected an outside spigot. You will know the freshwater tank is full because water will come out of the overflow value on the bottom of the camper. This is for filling ONLY, not for using water on board.
City Water Fixtures, position 2 & 6, is for using water onboard while hooked up to an outside spigot. The water pump must be OFF. In this position, you will NOT fill the freshwater tank onboard, as it is not needed.
Thank you for renting with us. As your trip nears an end, we wanted to put together a list of things to keep in mind and help ensure you get your security deposit back!

With COVID-19 throwing the economy into a tailspin, we’re all looking for ways to bring in some extra income. Fortunately, if you own a recreational vehicle (RV), you can generate a return on your investment by renting it out when you’re not using it. We at Williamson Auto & RV, LLC, specialize in RV consignment and serve as property managers for RV owners seeking to rent out their campers without any of the hassle.
An RV can be a major expense, and it might seem like it’s not worth the outlay if you’re only using it a few weeks a year. Why not offset some of the costs of ownership and generate passive income while your camper would otherwise just sit idle and unused? Owners of RVs who choose to work with us benefit from hands-off renting while still being able to use their camper whenever they wish.
What is included in RV Consignment?
When you list with us, we take over all of the day-to-day responsibility. We market your unit to targeted audiences and handle all customer inquiries. We provide storage for your RV, process bookings and meet with customers for RV pick-up and return. We show customers how to hook and unhook water, electric and sewage lines, and overall how to work the unit. When needed, we deliver units to customers at their home or destination. Between rentals, we clean your camper in and out, change out the linens, replenish supplies and take care of all the turnover logistics. You just leave the keys with us and watch money show up in your bank account after every rental.
We’re always looking to add new units to our fleet and are specifically looking for Class A and Class C drivable units at this time. Whether you’ve already made the investment in an RV or are considering buying one and looking to reduce the overall cost, give us a call and we’ll grab a coffee and chat. Your investment is our investment, and we’d be happy to discuss the process with you and answer any questions you might have.
Update April 6: There has been another change to the policy. Today, Governor Eric Holcomb has stated that all Indiana state park campgrounds are closed during this COVID-19 outbreak. We are still open to rent RVs to those are needing a place to temporarily live during this time or needing a “quarantine” unit (these are not medically approved units but can be used as a way to limit public contact). This could pertain to (but not limited to) medical professional – doctors or nurses looking to stay on site or stay close but separate from family, possible those working at power plants or electrical companies, basically essential personnel that need a “safe” place to stay. If you are interested in renting, please reach out to us to discuss the details. Please stay safe!
UPDATE April 2: As this situation develops, restrictions and advisories change day by day, so please stay attuned to current guidelines provided by your local officials. On March 23, Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb issued a stay-at-home order currently effective through April 6. However, as outdoor activity is still permitted, Indiana’s State Parks and campgrounds within the state parks remain open. Indeed, health officials recommend fresh air, physical activity and time in nature during this period to maintain both physical and mental health, as long as everyone adheres to social distancing advisories.
Given these parameters, families can still go camping by RV. Additionally, many healthcare and essential service providers require accommodations in isolation to keep their households safe. As RVs are a form of housing and therefore essential, we are currently keeping our business open per state guidelines to provide for these patrons.
At this point, campers with advance reservations are still welcome to camp at state campgrounds, but campers without reservations will not be permitted. Campers during this time will also need to keep some extra health guidelines in mind. In addition to what we noted in the original blog post above, please also avoid situations that would cause you to touch surfaces others have touched (like playgrounds), and wear gloves or sanitize your hands before and after touching items like gas pumps. If possible, stay out of shared spaces like gas stations and public restrooms, and don’t take extra trips to grocery stores to gather supplies for your adventure. Plan ahead and get everything you need in as few trips as possible to limit your exposure, and keep your ventures into public spaces as short as you can.
Additionally, please be mindful of limited medical facilities in the rural areas where we tend to camp, and take precautions to avoid requiring their services and contributing to the spread. Even a few cases of COVID-19 could quickly overwhelm these providers’ abilities to provide sufficient care.
If you are a healthcare provider or other essential employee who needs to isolate from the rest of your household, or if you’ve recently traveled or come into contact with someone positive for COVID-19 and need to quarantine, we may be able to help. An RV offers a well-equipped living space that you can park right in your driveway, close enough to see your loved ones but separated enough to keep them safe, or right at your job site. Get in touch and we’ll discuss options that may work for you.
Finally, planning an RV adventure you can take after the pandemic passes may help you get through these difficult times. On this blog and our Facebook page, we’ll share ideas for intriguing destinations you can visit as well as great RVs that can get you there and give you all the comforts of home. Give us a call and we’ll help you set up a future getaway.
What weird and uneasy times we’re living in. We’ve never dealt with a pervasive, invisible attacker quite like the COVID-19 virus or the changes that go along with it, and it’s pretty unnerving. The government and leading public health officials are all encouraging those of us who can to socially distance ourselves from others to slow the spread, and most of us are doing our best to keep the virus at bay. And so we wait. And we wait… And while most of us have not contracted the COVID-19 virus at this point, a lot of us are starting to feel the effects of cabin fever.
Fortunately, we can still go out and enjoy nature, although we’ll need to give each other a little more personal space on the trail for the time being. This virus isn’t oozing through valleys or lurking in the soil, so with proper precautions, it’s still OK to go out and get some fresh air. A lot of public parks are still open, and many campgrounds are as well. Although going for a fun road trip isn’t advisable during this pandemic, you could potentially take an RV to a campground with plenty of space between sites and use it as your basecamp for some thoughtfully planned outdoor adventures.
COVID-19 Virus Travel Recommendations
If you do venture out, the same health guidelines still apply. Wash your hands after touching shared surfaces, and avoid touching your face. If you need to cough, do so into your elbow and not your hand. Stay at least six feet away from others outside of your household members, and regularly disinfect frequently touched surfaces. If you stay at a campground or make a pit stop en route, clean your hands before and after touching anything, and use your camper’s bathroom whenever possible versus a public restroom. And of course, if you feel sick, stay home and call your doctor.

So you’ve decided you want to rent a recreational vehicle (RV) for your next vacation or family gathering. Now you need to figure out the right type of RV for your needs. The best choice will depend on a number of factors, including whether you want a drivable or towable unit, the towing abilities and capacities of your towing vehicle if you go that route, the features you want the vehicle to include and the number of people you need to house. Williamson Auto & RV, LLC, has a fleet of both drivable and towable units that can sleep between four and nine people, so we have a great camper ready for you that’s ideal for your next getaway.
People use a range of terms for RVs, and while many are interchangeable, others denote important distinctions. To start, recreational vehicle/RVs and campers are broad terms for moveable motor vehicles or trailers designed with living quarters for human accommodation. Drivable units feature an incorporated cab for all-in-one convenience, and towable units allow drivers to use their own truck or SUV to haul the trailer.
Types of Drivable RV Units
Drivable units, also known as motorhomes, are subdivided into Classes A, B and C based on their size and design. Class A units resemble flat-front buses and offer the most space and luxury of the different RV styles. Class B units, often called campervans, are the smallest and most fuel-efficient option of the drivable varieties, and they generally feature one bed and don’t include amenities like showers and toilets. Class C units split the difference between the two extremes and provide more living space, often including an alcove berth over the cab, than a Class B as well as restroom facilities and more room for cooking, dining and sleeping.

Class B
Class C
Types of Towable RV Units
Towable units include conventional travel trailers, fifth-wheel trailers, pop-ups and sport utility haulers. Conventional travel trailers vary from one-person teardrop trailers that can be towed behind a car or small sport utility vehicle to complex multi-bedroom layouts that require a dually pickup truck built for heavy hauling. Fifth-wheels are like conventional travel trailers, but instead of connecting to a rear ball hitch, they link to a robust fifth-wheel hitch installed in the bed of a pickup truck. Lightweight pop-ups have canvas sides and slide-out beds as well as basic amenities like kitchen tables, sinks and propane stoves. Finally, sport utility haulers offer all the features of a full-size camper as well as enclosed space to bring along equipment like motorcycles, ATVs, kayaks, paddleboards and more.

Currently, Williamson RV Rental’s fleet includes seven vehicles, including four trailers, two Class C drivable units and one Class A drivable unit, and we’re always looking to add new vehicles to our line-up. Check out the options, and if you’re ready to rent or have questions about the right RV for you, get in touch! We’ll be happy to help you find the perfect vehicle for your needs.
There’s nothing like traveling by recreational vehicle (RV). With the open road and endless opportunity for adventure ahead, you and your loved ones can create lasting memories with every mile while keeping all the comforts of home close at hand. However, RV ownership can be costly as well as time-consuming, leading many people to believe this kind of travel is out of their reach. Fortunately, RV rental creates an affordable way to vacation by RV without any of the costs or hassles of ownership.
Who is Williamson RV Rental LLC?
Here in southern Indiana, Williamson RV Rental LLC, offers a wide range of RVs, campers and travel trailers for you to choose from for your next getaway. We own a few of these units ourselves and also serve as property managers for independent RV owners looking to generate some return on their investment, and together, we have a varied fleet of Class A, Class C, fifth wheel and travel trailers ready for you to take on your next vacation. Think of us like Airbnb for RVs!
What Are the Benefits?
If you’re planning on a long road trip, a drivable Class A or Class C offers all-in-one convenience. Folks looking to set up shop at a campground might prefer a travel trailer so they can detach the towing vehicle for day trips and leave the camper behind. Both options provide the benefits of a hotel on wheels that you can take wherever you go. Alternately, they can also create extra bedrooms for houseguests, so an RV can come in handy for family get-togethers even if you’re staying at home.
Whether you’re looking to enjoy a long weekend with a group of friends, bring the kids to a family-friendly campground, head out with your significant other on an extended summer trip to tour the country, or just keep some space between you and your in-laws on their annual visit, we have an RV that’s right for your needs.
We’re centrally located between Indianapolis and Louisville in Scipio, Indiana, just an hour from these two major cities and an hour and a half from Cincinnati. Keep Williamson RV Rental LLC in mind for your next adventure!
