What does “self-contained” motorhome mean?
Self-contained means you are not limited to staying at campgrounds with utility hook-ups. Each Great Alaskan Holidays motorhome is equipped with a 120 volt power generator to supply power to the microwave oven, roof air conditioner, even your hair dryer if you bring one along. Energy to operate the motorhome systems is supplied by propane and the dual R.V. batteries (one automotive, and two deep-cycle, golf cart type coach batteries). Propane provides the energy for the major appliances such as the furnace, refrigerator/freezer, stove top, oven, and hot water heater. The 12 volt battery system runs the motorhome lights, furnace fan, water pump, and the electronic ignition on the refrigerator, furnace and hot water heater. The motorhomes also have two separate holding tanks for wastewater.
