Frequently Asked Questions​

Winterization is the process of protecting an RV from freezing temperatures by draining water systems, adding RV antifreeze, and securing components vulnerable to cold damage.
Freezing temperatures can crack pipes, damage pumps, valves, and fittings. Proper winterization helps prevent expensive repairs during spring startup.
Winterization typically includes fresh water lines, water heater, pump, faucets, toilet, drains, exterior showers, and plumbing connections.
Yes. RV-safe, non-toxic antifreeze is added to protect plumbing components from freezing and expansion damage.
Yes. RV antifreeze is specifically designed for RV plumbing systems and is safe when used correctly.
Yes. Missed lines, trapped water, or incorrect valve positioning can still lead to cracked components even if antifreeze is used.
Yes. The water heater is drained, bypassed, and protected to prevent internal freeze damage.
The process is similar, but system layouts vary. Winterization steps are adjusted based on RV type and configuration.
Once winterized, water systems should not be used until de-winterization is completed. Limited dry use may still be possible.
Most winterization services are completed within a few hours, depending on RV size and plumbing complexity.
Skipping winterization can result in burst pipes, damaged pumps, leaks, and costly repairs when the RV is put back into service.
Winterization should be completed before freezing temperatures begin, typically in late fall.
