Preparing your RV for colder weather or storage is very important for most states and
Canada. Failure to prepare your RV may cause water supply lines or the water heater to
freeze. Refer to the
Uni-Dock Utility System section for setting details.
The preferred method to winterize your recreation vehicle is by using RV antifreeze in the
plumbing system. Use
ONLY RV ANTIFREEZE in your fresh water system for freeze
protection. No other product or commodity should be used.
The RV should be winterized at the end of the camping season or when it will be exposed to
temperatures at or below 32°F (0°C). Repairs due to freezing are not covered under the terms
of the
Towable Limited Warranty.
Automotive antifreeze (ethylene glycol) and windshield washer antifreeze
(methanol) are poisonous. Never use these products in your fresh water
system. These products are harmful and may be fatal if swallowed.
