Can’t wait to get your caravan or motorhome back on the road this spring? Before you set off, it’s important that you check not only the towing accessories and electrical hookups, but also all the interior fixtures as well. If you find anything that needs replacing or upgrading, Thetford is the brand for you, so check out our top picks of the Thetford spares you need to make the most of your caravan this half term!
Thetford spares
A caravan is much more than just a vehicle; it is also your home-from-home, and needs to offer a similar level of comfort and convenience when on the road. Unfortunately, nothing says inconvenience quite like a caravan toilet that won’t flush or a fridge door that won’t shut, so replace a faulty fixture or upgrade one before it gives out with our top picks.
We stock the Thetford spares to fix most common issues, so find the right category for you below or head over to our online shop to view our full range.
Thetford fridge spares
Whilst on the road your caravan fridge is your main source of fresh, temperature-controlled food, so if you have noticed any issues, it is probably due to a fault with one of these key fixtures:
1. Door hinges
Along with reliable locks and seals, door hinges maintain the correct temperature inside your fridge, but if they become loose or stop working then the door will no longer close properly and maintain the tight seal needed for safe food storage.
2. Spark electrodes
If there is power going to the fridge but it won’t turn on, it is very likely that there is a poor connection or that the ignition system isn’t working properly, and a replacement spark electrode is needed to start the ignition.
3. Watt elements
An issue with the temperature might take more time to spot than other issues but if you have noticed that the fridge is running hotter than normal or that food is quickly going off, this all points to the watt element not working as it should. These important heating elements supply heat to the fridge to maintain its temperature, so if you are not sure which element is the correct one for your fridge please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
4. Fridge burner
If your burner won’t light correctly despite being cleaned and reconnected, or if there are visible signs of electrical damage, then you will need a new one. We stock 4 slot and 5 slot versions so, check that you have the correct burner for your fridge before completing your order.
Thetford cooker spares
Keep your family safe and well-fed with all the spares you need to tackle any issues and replace any worn-out elements with our range of replacement cooker parts:
1. Glass cooker lid
If you’ve left the hob on without realising it, dropped a heavy pan onto the lid, or had a particularly bumpy ride, you might find yourself in need of a replacement glass top for your cooker, so measure your existing lid and find the right size replacement in our range.
2. Control knob
