winter

This is a newbie sort of question, I have a 2015 FR Hardside A128s. It has no waste water storage tank, I have drained the fresh water tank and blew air through the system. My question is why do I need to charge the system with antifreeze if there is no water to freeze? I must be missing...

Have a question about winter storing and the stabilizer's Rockwood 2703ws, when storing for the winter is it best to have the stabilizer jacks down or leave them up. Of coarse the slide's will be in and it will be winterized. Just wondering, up or down, 1- less of a chance for mice to crawl...

I have a 2021 FR Vibe 28RL which came with 165 W solar panel. I’m a seasonal camper with full time shore power from May 1 - mid Oct. Shore power is disconnected during the off season. My camper stays at the campground all year long. I will be winterizing the camper soon and looking for your...

I asked this question a few days ago and I received several great responses. In one response, it was suggested that the water heater anode rod be removed to drain the tank. I think I saw in another post that a deep socket 1 1/16 inch socket is needed. I will need to add that to my toolbox. Is...

Newly purchased 2022 Sabre 38DBQ. Our campground will be disconnecting power before I can winterize. I know my battery (with juice pack) will provide enough power to close the slides. Will my residential refrigerator drain my battery when the 120v is disconnected?

Good morning from the northeast I am looking for help deciding on a cover for my 2013 Wildcat fifthwheel camper I am looking for something that stands up to snow and ice Thanks for the help in advance

We are unable to drive for a while but still need to get our Sabre 37FBT from Arizona to Texas. Can anyone point me in the right direction to find a transportation company?

I have been trying to educate myself as much as possible as this is my first TT, but still have some winterizing questions. Rockwood 122S Should I get the pump converter kit for adding antfreeze. I just hate a potential point of failure(leak)...

I have a Rockwood ESP, and we will be storing our trailer at a storage area for the winter. (yay, suburb life!) Am I ok to winterize in my driveway, then tow it to the facility? Or should I take everything with me and winterize it in place there? There's no shower or toilet, so it's just the...

1. New to the Wildwood series and wondering what folks set their on when weather dips below say 40 or less. It is stored in a open but covered garage. Stays plugged in to 30 amp 24/7. 2. also does anyone use a space heater small but 1500 w on high, plugged in to RV circuit for heating to avoid...

So I have a booking from December to April but the border is still closed to those who wish to drive and or take your truck and trailer over, any ideas or suggestions? Right now we have a plan but not sure if it is a good plan, my friend has suggested he fly up and drive my truck and trailer...

Anyone have any info on TT covers? What brand held up really well or what ones to avoid? I'm in need a new one this year. I definitely want to find one with multiple straps/tie off grommets. When the winter wind gets under the cover it moves all over and causes wear & tear any place there is...

Hi all, this is our first trailer and first winterizing experience. We have electric stabilizing jacks. Should they be up or down for the cold, harsh winter ahead? TIA for your replies:o

This is the first winter for my camper trailer. I will be covering it and debating the best way to maintain the battery. I am inclined to not have the 30A cable plugged in. Instead I am thinking about turning the battery disconnect switch off and connecting a battery tender/maintainer to the...

We like to camp all year and have never fully winterized our rvs that were parked on driveway at home when not being used. The 5th wheel basement had ducting to the cabin and a small quartz heater ran all winter at a temperature of 70 degrees. We did put rv anti-freeze in the sink traps and in...

We decided to give Florida a chance this winter instead of Arizona to save a few miles driving. The reservations were made last January, prior o the Delta variant and what we are now seeing and reading in the news about Florida. We are both in our seventies and fully vaccinated, I even qualified...

I am looking for camping site recommendations for Southern Calif. Full Hookup.

First res fridge i've owned. Need to winterize soon, and need advice. How do I winterize the ice maker? Is there a filter behind the fridge? Can I get the ice maker to cycle on demand, to bring anti freeze in?

I have a 2021 wolf pup 18TO black label and wondered if anyone knew if water tank and pipes are wrapped for colder weather? Thanks dan

Hi Solera Family At least I hope to become part of the family. We are looking at buying a 2013 Solera 24R from our neighbor. Looks in excellent condition, has 28000 miles but there is always one "big" gotcha. I don't think it was correctly winterized last winter and Oklahoma had one of it's...

I live in south Florida and have no experience with winter weather. Next year, we are starting off on a long trip in February and we may encounter sub-freezing temps for a few weeks (or a heat wave, who can tell anymore?) I have heard about parking brakes freezing to the wheels so was...

When de-winterizing I used the city water hookup to flush the antifreeze, then filled the FW tank half way and turned on the pump to flush the pump and remaining water lines. The faucets had a lot of air and the pump kept running after shutting the faucet off. I searched the threads for...

I've been covering my Skylight in the winter with a home made wooden box/cover. My question is: am I wasting my time? Does the skylight need to be protected from snowload? I'm in Northern Ontario so lots of snow. Thanks.

2012 shamrock 19 purchase in dec, dealer had winterized. I was given a quick run down in what i would do, but its was 6 mons ago. I watched some video and started. 1st mistake, i didnt check the valve settings inside. 2nd mistake, pur the hose on the city connect instead of fresh. Flooded...

I'm not looking forward to the hassle of winterizing and having to play with anti-freeze. Can't I just drain all liquids from a travel trailer, park it for the winter, and call it a season? Sounds like a no-brainer to me. Don't understand the fuss on winterizing.
