Tech Tip - Winterization
As the colder weather sets in, many of us need to prepare our RVs for the winter, in a ritual we call Winterization.
Safety Note: In order to prevent damage to the RV from freezing, be sure to winterize your RV. If your not comfortable with winterizing the plumbing in your RV, leave it to an RV service professional.
The primary reason to winterize is to protect the plumbing system from freeze damage. As water freezes and thaws, it expands with amazing force, destroying whatever confines it. Concrete highways frequently break apart due to freezing water: our little plastic pipes and appliances don't have a chance.
Fall is also a good time to clean and examine the roof for sealant wear or other damage, and repair it. The seams get tested during the winter and the spring thaw, so renewing them now will help ensure they withstand the winter and the upcoming season. It's also a good time to examine doors and windows for proper seal, and make repairs as necessary. Slide outs and their seals should also be cleaned and examined, and slide out seal treatment applied. The mechanism should be lubricated also, to help protect it.
