STORAGE
Many recreational vehicle owners have tried to winterize their trailer
themselves. At some point, most have had to deal with a major problem.
They were not equipped to properly blow out the plumbing pipes with
the correct pressure, or water remained in the water heater. The damage
did not appear until the spring thaw, and then it was already too late.
The cost of winterization is minimal compared with the cost of potential
damage to your trailer. Leave this work to a professional, you will save
money in the long term and enjoy peace of mind.
HINTS AND TIPS
Before using the compressed air method, you will need a special adaptor
called a burst plug, which allows compressed air to be fed into the
municipal water connection. This small, affordable adaptor is available
from most RV supplies retailers.

When storing your recreational vehicle during freezing weather and in an unheated
environment, the water system must be winterized. Water system components may be
damaged if not properly winterized.
