How to level your motorhome or caravan
Share
During a vacation or trip, a caravan or motorhome that is not level can quickly cause minor irritations that you would rather avoid. In this blog, you’ll read how to level your caravan or motorhome with an automatic leveling system, without the hassle of loose tools.
That way, you can immediately enjoy a nice drink or head out to explore the area, without wasting time or arguing about, “Is it level now?”
Why should a caravan or motorhome be level?
If you try to sleep and keep rolling to one side, that’s obviously no fun. And a morning cup of coffee that you can’t fill properly because the mug is tilted doesn’t help either. These are all issues you prevent by leveling your motorhome or caravan. The benefits at a glance:
- Better sleep: your bed lies flat, so you’re less likely to “roll to one side”.
- Fridge works more reliably: especially with absorption fridges, a level position helps ensure proper cooling.
- Water drains better: shower and sink outlets work better, without puddles in the wrong place.
- More stability and peace of mind: a level motorhome feels sturdier when you walk around and move.
- Less strain on components: doors, cupboards, and mechanisms often close more neatly when the vehicle isn’t tilted.

How do you level a caravan or motorhome?
Leveling your caravan or motorhome with an automatic leveling system takes just a few minutes. You press one button and let the system do the work, no ramps or manual adjustments. Follow the steps below to level your caravan or motorhome automatically:
- Park on a firm surface and apply the handbrake.
- Ensure a 12V power supply.
- Press the automatic level button and let the LevelPro adjust the height per jack.
- Wait until the system indicates it’s finished.
- Check, and start relaxing and camping straight away
This way, you can set up a perfectly level motorhome or caravan in no time.
How to deal with supports sinking
If the supports sink, it’s almost always due to ground that’s too soft. First place wide support pads under the jacks, and only then let the leveling system level, so the pressure is distributed better. Afterwards, quickly check that everything remains stable. If a support still sinks, stop immediately and increase the contact area with extra pads.
Ready to go!
With a level motorhome or caravan, your holiday starts relaxed from the very first moment. No hassle, no slanted cup of coffee, and no fiddling around when you arrive, just time for what really matters: enjoying yourself. Park, let the leveling system do its job, and head out. That way, you’ll have more time to enjoy and you won’t dread the next destination.
