I plan to travel this winter. I live in NC and our first freeze here will probably occur in December. I will be traveling to Florida back and forth. I will need to winterize my BT cruiser 5210 but obviously do not want to do this every 2 weeks all winter. I can winterize and just use the public...
Should I have to winterize my camper even though I have never used it and I plan on taking it out in January. For contacts I live in central Virginia and I am heading to Texas. When I get to Texas I will be living in it for 2 years.
We have a 2018 Escape 19. Would the following work: Use the Toilet only, use no other water in the trailer.
Assumptions: The last time it was winterized, the water lines were blown out with air, and anti-freeze was put in the p traps (kitchen sink, bathroom sink, and shower drain). And a...
Hi all,
Does anybody have ideas on how to drain the pickup tube from the fresh tank?
I had drained the fresh tank, the hot water tank, and blown out the lines. However it seems the fresh water tank pickup tube did not drain, and it froze in our cold weather last week (lows about -3F and...
We just winterized our 2018 Solitude 310GK which I thought went OK after a couple times viewing the online video on winterizing a Grand Design with a Nautilus P1 System - my wife opened all the faucets, shower and toilet till they were pink, I emptied the water filter, opened the low point...
I just got yet another ad from Lippert... which talked about their "Floe" product to take care of draining your RV water system. It mount permanently in your RV and they have a 12v product and a 110v product... has anyone installed this and used it to vacate the water from your RV? Sounds...
New member here with Grand Design Solitude 372wb. This is our first rig and new to RVing. We are keeping our RV in an indoor storage unit for our first winter. (Another story but: we were broken into at our outdoor storage unit within the first couple of months of owning and tore the door off...
I want to store water in my fresh tank during the winter as a backup water source. All other plumbing lines are winterized. Is it safe to store fresh water during freezing temps in the winter?
- All water lines winterized
- Fill the fresh tank
- Turn on fresh tank heater
- Furnace OFF
I was...
I winterized my Escape 21 a few weeks ago. It's almost automatic now.
I don't like to use pink antifreeze anywhere except the drain traps, so I use my air compressor to blow out the water lines.
So far so good. The cover is more difficult. I haven't figured out a way to put the cover on...
Time to winterize in Montana, thought I would share my method.
I installed a valve in the supply line from the water tank to the pump. The T connection is a 36 inch piece of tubing. Turning the valve selects water from the tank or water from the T connection. Turn the valve to the T...
Greetings. After returning from a brief camping trip (where everything worked fine) and restowing our 2017 Solitude 360RL-R in a covered, powered & climate controlled stall; I have been unable to properly de-energize the trailer for long-term storage. I am connected to GFI-protected...
Hi all,
I just de-winterized my 395m. I was able to get steady water flow when hooked up to the city water and having my nautilus set to ‘city water’ however when I turn the system to dry camping and turn of the land line my cold water begins to sputter and my hot water stops working entirely...
New to me, 2017 367BHS, and I will need to winterize my coach soon (this weekend). This is a seasonal unit that will stay on the site throughout our northeaster winter.
The campground charges $60 to do it for us. But I'm inclined to do it myself to better understand my coach (and save a few...
We just got a 2005 Endura. Like the bones but need to know where you pump the antifreeze into the water system after bypassing the water heater. It’s freezing here. I got it in Florida and I’ve got it plugged in and heated but want to get the antifreeze in as soon as possible.
Hello everybody:
Anyone out there know where the hotwater bypass is on a Conquest 6320 motorhome?
I have enclosed a pic of the water heater from the outside, but nothing looks obvious to me. I also looked under the sink and removed a panel under the sink, but still nothing.
Just returned...
Hi folks! I'm new to the forum and there appears to be alot of knowledge out here!:D
I have a 2500RL. Do any of you know where the water pump is located and where the winterize valve is? The winterize hose is located in the front storage compartment, but I can't find the valve...
Thanks in...
We just picked up on new 2017 Momentum 350m and took it out for our shake down cruise this weekend. I had to re-winterize by blowing it dry b/c I could not figure out where the water heater bypass valve was on the unit. Here is an image of the trailer and a snapshot (from the web) of the type...
I am winterizing with 2015 27RL and am concerned on how to potentially keep mice from entering the underbelly of the camper around the slide hardware and manual hand crank stub per the attached images.
I have never used my washer hook-up and got to thinking about the winterization process. Is there anything I need to do for this run of plumbing if I have never used it?
Thanks,
Ed
