Is a Hab Check REALLY Worth It? Our Honest Campervan Experience

Our campervan goes in for its very first habitation check after one year of ownership. We show exactly what a habitation check is, what gets tested, and why it matters for campervan owners. After a full year with our IH campervan Teddy, it was time for his first habitation (hab) check — a crucial annual inspection for motorhomes and campervans. In this video, we take you along as we return to IH Motorhomes in Yorkshire to see how a professional campervan habitation check actually works and whether our van passes with flying colours. If you’re a new campervan owner, thinking about buying a motorhome, or wondering “Do I really need a hab check?”, this video breaks it all down. We explain what a hab check is, what engineers inspect inside your campervan, and why it’s so important for safety, warranties, damp prevention, and peace of mind. While Teddy is being checked, we jump on the train and spend the day in Leeds, exploring Christmas markets, food halls, and the city centre, showing what a typical campervan service day can look like when your van is off the road. In this video we cover: What a campervan HAB check includes Gas, electrics, water systems & safety checks explained Damp testing and why it matters for campervans and motorhomes Our real first-year campervan ownership experience How long a habitation check takes What paperwork you should receive after a HAB check A day out in Leeds while our campervan is serviced A habitation check isn’t legally required like an MOT, but it is strongly recommended and often essential for maintaining manufacturer warranties on campervans and motorhomes.
