winter

Hello, I've been a looked for a while. Usually able to find all the info I've been juat skimming the site, but this morning I woke up to a problem I can't find a solution to. And im sure this is problem is my own fault. I bought my ceder creek 38ck2 mid 2019, for my traveling job, it was abused...

We are dealing with a pretty hard hit from the recent winter storm here in Louisa, Virginia. We've been on generator power for a few days now and the MiFi is providing backup internet access. All is well except one thing: we have a Pelonis floor heater that runs in the TT set for about 55-60...

What is the recommendation for winterizing the black tank? Empty or water with chemicals? Should Rv antifreeze be used in the black tank?

I live in Wisconsin. Today's temp is 9 degrees F. My camper is currently winterized. I am leaving for Florida at the end of the month. When I arrive out of the snow belt, I would like to dewinterize. Is this something that can be done at the campsite (considering illegal gray water dumping...

we use the trailer on weekends, at least every other weekend, 43 ft cardinal luxury 5th wheel, but weather is cold so i dont want to freeze up. what is best way to do this, dont want to use antifreeze and dont want to drain water heater. any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks Randy

Hi, Situation: I have a 2007 Greyhawk. I’m in Arizona and so it rarely gets freezing here for long, but the temp will drop to and below freezing (low of 27F) for about 12 hours in the coming days. I’m using the motorhome to cook and leaving the thermostat at 45 when not in use. I have drained...

I have a NOBO 16.2 and thought I could make it through the winter without winterizing as it seldom gets to freezing in the Phoenix area. I thought wrong and it is expected to drop below freezing in some of the valley areas this weekend. I will be pulling my trailer out of storage tomorrow...

Trying to winterize my Concord 300DS and unable to get the pump to such up the antifreeze from the bucket. I have drained everything and bypassed water heater. I think the problem has something to do with a valve that I found near the low water point drains. It is currently in the "on"...

New to the motorhome world. We had our motorhome winterized. Our winters are cold should i leave the heater on inside? We are hooked up to power.: Thank you

I just bought a new WOLF PUP 16HE. We pulled it off the lot and straight to the campground. The temp was 21 yesterday morning. The unit was winterized at the dealer, but we used city water, using the sink faucet some, and the toilet. We did not use the water heater that supposedly bypassed. I...

My better half is asking if we can take our Isata 3 FW from CA to Michigan for Thanksgiving 2022. I'm a California Coast native without much experience driving on snow and almost zero experience driving the motorhome in snow so I'm doing early research to prepare for trip. We will be living in...

I'm soon to be the owner of a 2013 Silverback 31rs. I don't see how to winterize this camper. There are 2 valves in the center where the water connections are but no attachment for an antifreeze hose. Any winterizing info on this model would sure be appreciated. The current owner never had...

Followed the steps as outlined in the online manual to winterize using the suction method. Pumps comes on and never pulls fluid. Do yes the city water check valve need to be pressed? I have not tried putting water back in the fresh water tank to make sure the pump works. There is a light on the...

Newbie Question - I have a new 2021 Flagstaff Forest River 176 SE pop up tent camper. It is the smallest, most basic of these robust off-road models - no bathroom, no hot water heater, no AC. I have pumped and drained all the water from tank and lines. Since it is such a basic system, do I...

I have my Rv at my property in upper state NY and I'd like to use it on some nice weekends. I wouldn't use the water system or the toilet. I bought a Camco Porta poti and portable sink. I was thinking I could set them up in the bathroom and bring several gallon jugs and bottled water to use in...

Can not find any info in how to winterize the ice maker in the freezer of a Dometic rm1350 refrigerator in the Forester Motor Home. Any one know how to do this. There is no button to push and no holes to insert a jump wire into. Only thing I can figure out is fill the potable water with some...

Both of us have finally retired and going to make that first trip south in winter. I know we'll have to wait till clear of freezing temps to de winterize system. If we were de-wintertizing at home I'd sanitize also, but being on the road is a little more challenging. Just wondering if everyone...

Toy Hauler storage: I live in Northern Wisconsin and we see our fair share of snow. I bought a cover for my Toy Hauler but have a question about how to park the trailer. Is it better to park level or have the nose up or down slightly. Drainage around camper is not an issue. Just curious how...

Planned to replace my pump when winterizing. Also had a small leak around the filter to repair. I have the pump installed and filter leaks fixed not it seems that I have drips at many braided flex pipe junctions. I guess I moved too many things or maybe these small leaks have been there. More...

I’ve been camping for over 20 years but only twice was I out when it was really cold and it was only cold for one night. We are getting ready to go and campingand the temperatures are supposed to go into the high 20s for three nights in a row and warm up above 50 during the day. I’m just trying...

A couple of questions about winterizing my Surveyor 203RKLE. Is blowing out the water line from the city water connection then pouring antifreeze into the traps sufficient? Should I put antifreeze into the grey and black tanks? Do I have to have an air compressor to blow the lines? Will any...

I don't have a Owners manual and the one I did find online is not helpful. What steps do I need to take to winterize my 2022 205ss? 1) How do I bypass the water heater? Where is that sucker cause I don't see any access panels around where it is. 2) where is the water pump to find the hose and...

will it hurt to leave camper plugged in all winter? It does have a solar panel on the roof. I think it is only 50 watt. I could just turn the battery disconnect off and would let sit. Will that work? I

Opinions, please...just got ready to winterize F.R. Flagstaff 832ikbs and proceeded as I have for 6 years. Turned all the by-pass valves, drained water heater, etc. This time, when I hooked up my outside hose between the Anti-freeze intake and the bucket of anti-freeze and turned pump on, when...

New to the RV world and realizing there is no manual with your RV, just discovered our RV has an enclosed & heated underbelly. Am I safe in assuming I don't need to winterize if it's plugged into our 30 amp connection at our home with the heat on in freezing weather?
