STORAGE CHECKLIST
Prior to Storage
If storing for the winter, be sure the RV is
winterized (refer to Sec. 5 Plumbing System,
Winterizing the plumbing system).
_ Check your roof and other surfaces to
ensure there is no damage and potential
leakage that might otherwise go unnoticed
until it is too late.
_ Close all windows and roof vents.
_ Close the propane cylinder valve(s). If your
cylinders do not already have a cover,
purchase at least a vinyl propane cylinder
cover and make sure the regulator is
covered.
_ Cover all external outlets, such as furnace,
exhaust, etc. to prevent mice or other
rodents from entering.
_ Cover the roof air conditioner.
_ Disconnect 120-volt AC power to the RV.
_ Do not use the stabilizing jacks during
