Winter is upon us and the temperature is dropping rapidly, so now is the time for all Motorhome and Campervan owners to begin preparing their vehicles for winter, if you haven’t already done so.

Even a mild frost can result in expensive and unnecessary repairs for Motorhome and Campervan owners that are unprepared. When you are not using your Motorhome or Campervan ensure that all water systems are drained completely, paying particular attention to the Water Heater, Cassette Toilet, Fresh and Waste Water Tanks, Water Pumps, Pipes and Filters. If you have a plastic Water Filter attached to your Water Pump, ensure that this is unscrewed from its housing, dried out and left disconnected.

Once you are satisfied that the water system on your Motorhome or Campervan has been completely drained, make sure that you leave all interior and exterior water faucets, taps and drain taps open until such time that you need to recharge the water system to use your vehicle again. To further protect your investment, why not consider a full Motorhome Cover or maybe a Thermal Screen to help keep your vehicle protected from the harsh winter weather.
