winter

Like the Video shows, the Trema water heater seems to be easily winterized by emptying the plastic mixer tank and draining the water using the yellow spout. In my case this method failed. Although the vehicle was level, there must have been sufficient water remaining in the tank that could not...

Okay, so I'm about to de-winterize my new ePro. Thanks to everyone who has posted instructions and tips. So where are the official Forest River instructions?

Looking for the perfect situation. Would like to trade my 2004, 17' Bigfoot trailer for a Four Wheel Camper. Preferably a Hawk or Eagle model. Center Bath Model. If you're looking for one of these trailers, you know what they are. This particular model has nearly every possible feature...

I was just wondering. I live in california and we do not have snow, maybe some rain here and there in the winter. Do I need to drain out my water and put antifreeze in there? or is it not necessary? Please advise.. thank you

Well got to Florida and de-winterized. Few hrs later I notice a little trickle of water running out under the bed. Found the leak quickly, one of the water heater bypass valves was cracked. Well all back together now after a trips to Lowe’s for a new valve and PEX. Darn PEX crimping tool is...

I'm in count down mode for the first trip of the season - T minus 35 days here! Who else is already set for their first tow of the season? Where are you going? Heading to the Eastern Shore of Maryland here!

Newbie winterizing question. Live is South Texas where rarely gets cold, but now that I purchased a camper it is going to drop to 5 degrees! My Rockwood Mini-Lite 2507S has an Antifreeze Inlet that says "to antifreeze, close the valve to the tank, open the valve to the inlet". I believe this is...

We're currently staying near Kerrville, TX at a FHU CG. We came South earlier to get a little early Spring :rolleyes:. We're not Winter campers and have only camped occasionally when overnight temps dropped into the 20s. At those times the only precaution I took was disconnecting the water...

We have a 2019 33DS, and it looks like we are going to have a couple of nights of colder than usual temperatures - down to 16F. I must admit that I didn't pay much attention to winterizing when we bought the motorhome last summer. We are supposed to be camping over the weekend, and I expect...

We have a new 2021 Flagstaff EPro and this week it's supposed to get into the low 20's, but if there is no water anywhere in the system, what is the point of putting antifreeze in the lines? If there is any water at all, it would be minimal and wouldn't the lines expand enough to handle any...

Hey so we keep our rig indoors and plugged in do we have some really frigid temperatures coming in to Oklahoma this week and next week. And I didn’t winterize the rig, we typically have it done. Can you guys give me some fast suggestions. Like using the pump to pull it through the water...

Information for winterizing my new RLT2608 BSD on line does not reflect my trailer. Looking for specifics on the water valve positions for normal and/or winterizing. Pictures for my unit attached. The first pic is the incoming line valve. The second is the water heater. Thanks

Hello! My family recently purchase our very first RV but we are completely new to RVing. We are hoping to do some weekend winter camping at nearby ski resorts in PA. Based on our reading, we know we can add insulation on the pipes, use heat tape and etc to keep the pipes from freezing while...

I have a class c with the 3.0 Diesel and the diesel generator. Has anybody experienced any problems camping -10 to -20 degrees? I do have it winterized. We were out on New Years and it got down to 14 degrees. No problems. We are looking to go up to the High country ( we live in Denver )...

Hi all, about to be the new owner of a 2015 Wolf Pup 17RP. Feeling pretty anxious about the cold weather. At what temps/number of days does the propane heater no longer keep things flowing if we're looking to use all the functionality. I've read about supplemental heaters, tank heaters...

Hi! Hubby and I both grew up camping, me in a pop up and his family in a slide in on a pick up truck. Our son is turning 10 and in cub Scouts so he's gotten interested in camping and we finally took the plunge this week. (Keeping the tent for scout events lol) We go for final walk through and...

Been really enjoying our 16.8 since July. Trying to continue heading out throughout this winter but even with the tank heaters on, our water system keeps freezing up. Luckily each time it thaws out in the sun and works again without any cracked fittings. I think it’s the lines running into or...

Hi all, I just moved up from a Sunseeker 2350 to a 2850 SLE and wondering that if I wish to camp in below 32 degree weather in say Vermont or New Hampshire what do I need to protect the RV from freezing pipes, appliances and other working components. I saw something about an Artic Package, but...

We are planning to camp over the MLK Week-end in East Central Alabama (Lake Eufaula Campground.) One night the low is predicted to be 30 degrees. Should I be concerned about pipes freezing? I currently have the camper winterized and plan to re-winterize it when we return home.

We may be taking our Isata 3FW out at the end of the month. I currently have it winterized, but will need to have the black and gray tanks available if not the fresh tank. I know I will need to have water in the fresh tank to operate the heaters. We are equipped with solar, so how long can we be...

We thought very hard about leaving home this winter due to the Covid 19 disaster. We decided to head to the Rio Grand Valley as we have done the past three years to enjoy the warmer weather. We take Covid very serious and always wear a mask when out in public. We get carryout food a couple times...

Our 2015 unit is designed for winter use with double pane windows, heated tanks and thicker walls. While we have used it down to minus 8 Celsius, it was only for a couple of days in the fall. Any tips out there from other owners of this unit for extended use in real winter, as in the mountain...

Got back yesterday from our 1st. time winter camping, Breckenridge, CO one night -8* -17* with the wind chill, before we left I thought my biggest concern was that the outdoor shower was exposed to the outside, only to find out when stuff quit working how much needs to be done to winter camp.

The season is still 4 or 5 months out here in Colorado but I am want to be ready. This is my first time with a camper that I can’t garage (biggest one I have owned). Can someone walk me through the dewinterizing process for wolf pups? Mind you I was a glorified valve turned in the Navy, but...
