Winterizing The Plumbing System
Preparing your recreation vehicle for colder weather or storage is very important for most
states and Canada. Failure to prepare your RV may cause water supply lines and the water
heater to freeze. The RV should be winterized at the end of the camping season or when it
will be exposed to temperatures that will fall at or below 32°F (0°C). Repairs due to freezing
are not covered by warranty.
NOTE:
The winterization process may vary slightly due to different
plumbing configurations between models.
NOTE:
Appliances must be winterized. Refer to the manufactur
-
er’s manual for possible additional information or contact Customer
Service for assistance.
