Frost/Freeze warning tonight
Forecast calls for frost or a freeze tonight but we plan on at least one more trip next week. Really don't want to winterize for only a day or 2. We normally do the antifreeze method of winterization....

Mr. Murphy,
I was told to always keep the fresh water tank full as it works great as a 'heat sink' to keep everything around it from freezing.
I take it that you have no power to your motorhome while it's stored on your property. I would also keep the water heater full of water for the same reason as it can't freeze for a small dip below freezing.
Before going to bed on that 'cold' night, I would run the generator to heat up the coach with the furnace and heat the water tank.
If it got really cold, I would probably fill the grey and black tanks too with water to help maintain basement temp. Then, winterize when you return from your trip.:D
Good luck,
MM.
