winter

It was -10F overnight, it's still below 0F when we wanted to start, but cranking the engine was not going well. Super-cold weather is rare for us, so we don't have a block heater or other modifications, although we have learned to buy diesel locally to get the winter formulation, and...

This is going to be a thread mainly focused around upgrades I have done to my RV to make it easier to live out of full time up here in Canadian Winters. The coldest night I’ve slept in the RV at the time of writing was at -27C or -16F. The RV Propane heater really struggled to keep up...

Newbie here, i need to flush the winerizer on my new to me sightseer 35g but cannot find it anywhere in the manuel. Can someone give me a step by step to do this.

I’m in love with the 2015 and 2016 Brave retro series. However, my family and I only camp during the winter in mountains at various ski resorts. I’m currently loving my ‘05 Mini Winnie but need some more space as my kids get older. Are the retro Braves good in winter? Thanks

Well, I made a winter trip from TN to CA over 2 weeks. Myself, wife, 2 kids and 2 dogs all made it safely. Surprisingly, I did not encounter any major issues that required repair. Below is some things I remember: 1-error blinks on LCI controller for both drop down bed and jacks. I believe they...

Hi All, First time dewinterizing on my own. Other than just running water through the city water connection, do i have to by pass a tankless water heater first? or just run the water until no more pink stuff comes out? I have a 2023 Keystone bullet 330bhs. Thanks!

Last year, we did the Irish Spring + Dryer Sheets thing (spreading them all throughout the rig) -- and that seemed to work. Not this year, apparently. I was just puttering around inside doing a few minor maintenance chores, and spotted evidence of mice having been inside. Not only that, they...

We are traveling in our 35’ Class A from Salt Lake City to Phoenix in mid-December, trying to decide on highway 89 thru Flagstaff or 93 thru Las Vegas. Looking for suggestions, thanks!

We live in NW FL. We get periods of cold weather but it doesn’t usually last long. Not too many times below 32, and usually just for a few hours. What should we do for winterizing? We have it under a carport and plugged in to shore power. Thank you

I winterize by blowing air through lines. Last year I forgot this outdoor connection and the remaining water in it froze and cracked the connection causing a leak. So I’m winterizing now and no matter what I do I can’t get any air to come out of this outlet when open. I’ve attached the hose and...

Hello campers! Our dealer and the owners manual were super vague on how to winterize our new Keystone Springdale. I also saw nothing on the interwebs about where the water pump was located. After some investigation, I discovered it was under the carpeted box on the left side of the bed. I had to...

I Just picked up a 1999 Minnie Winnie model 31A and I have a question about storing it over the winter. If I plug into a 110 volt line and will it charge the house batteries or will it damage the house batteries? Thanks in advance!

My wife and I love to camp but have never spent time in the southern states to get away from the cold weather. We are retired and need some advice on where to go. Does anyone have a special place to visit in January, away from the cold weather in Illinois? We are interested in visiting New...

Hi everyone, can anyone advise on what is needed to winter over in our RV (8264BHS) or would it be better to just winterize it and close it up for the winter. My daughter uses it as her art studio until her studio is finished being renovated. THANKS

I have winterized 5th wheels & the previous DP with both ice maker & Splendide washer. But now we have a View with a macerator pump to drain gray tank. Just need advice as how to protect this pump going into freezing weather. My first thought was to pour antifreeze into gray tank, then jog pump...

Installed a new lithium battery in the Spring and have been very satisfied. I was wondering how a lithium battery should be managed during the winter. My battery manual says it should be maintained at 50% SOC. Should I remove it from the trailer tongue and store in my garage or just leave it...

At the storage yard where I keep my TT, I've only seen a handful of a trailers with covers on during the off season. Does anyone have any input on the pros and cons of using a trailer cover? Im thinking about purchasing one for my TT being that it is now year 4 of ownership and I want to take...
