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.
If you chose to perform the winterization process yourself, read and understand the follow-
ing information before starting. Contact customer service or your dealer for questions about
this process. It may be easier to winterize the RV with another person to assist you.
Freezing can result in severe damage to the plumbing components and the
Combi furnace. Damage due to freezing or an unsuitable winterizing fluid is
not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
Winterize the Combi furnace:
At the start of the winter season
Before traveling to a location where freezing conditions are likely.
If the furnace will be stored under freezing conditions or for an extended
period of time.
NOTE:
The winterization process may vary slightly due to different
plumbing configurations between models.
NOTE:
Appliances must be winterized. Refer to the manufacturer’s
manual for possible additional information or contact Customer Service for
assistance.
