I live in Northern Utah and the weather is quite up and down this time of year. My dilemma is that I will be de-winterizing my C classto take a 4 day trip to Las Vegas. If weather lows drop slightly below 32 degrees for a day here and there in the next few weeks, do I need to winterize the water lines to be safe?Thanks for your response

No, Probably just drain lines to be safe it it stays below freezing all day for a few days. Will you be connected to shore power??

Why not just dewinterize as you get into warmer weather. Does not matter where you do it.

Day time temps will be 40's-50's...it is the night time temps I am concerned about that can dip into low 30's.

Jack_Diane_FreedomI get that but My son and his friend are depending on me to get them to a paintball Tournament in Vegas March 17th.

30s for a day or two is not enough to freeze water lines. Time to worry is mid twenties for hours or teens for less.

Don't worry, enjoy the trip :)

My sister says the trees are blossoming in St. George. It's been crazy weather up north though! I did yard work.

I have never dewinterized during the first week of March.....until this year. We are running 20+ degrees above normal every day and every night. So....I am getting ready for spring traveling.

We have had our motor home out a few times this winter and always re-winterize when we get back....... it costs me about $10 in antifreeze and takes 5 minutes.

Or am I missing something in the winterizing thing? All I ever do is drain the tanks and run antifreeze through the water lines? Is this what everyone else is doing?

I would say worry more in mid twenties if out for a long time. 30's no biggie really, even 30 for a while.
