Preparing your RV for freezing temperatures is crucial if you want to prevent costly damage during the off-season. If you're wondering how to winterize a camper, the process involves a few essential steps to protect your vehicle’s plumbing and exterior from harsh winter elements.
Start by draining all the water from the fresh water tank, gray and black water tanks, and water heater. Next, blow out the water lines with compressed air or add RV antifreeze to the water system to prevent freezing. Don’t forget to remove any food and clean out the fridge and cabinets to keep pests away.
Seal all windows, vents, and doors to block drafts, and consider using RV covers to protect the exterior. If storing your camper outside, check the roof and seams for leaks and apply sealant where needed.
Knowing how to winterize a camper properly can save you from expensive repairs in spring. It’s a simple investment of time that ensures your camper stays in great condition year after year.
