gonna get cold, pipes?

“most important, I want someone I can hold responsible if anything happens”

LOL! Read the fine print on the work order you sign.

Dollar Tree usually carries regular 100 watt light bulbs. They make good heat sources for pipes.

Fear the heat would melt the bay floor. Both wet bays are heavy plastic

Hang the light so it touches nothing. Or put a bedside table lamp in the bay.

4 reasons..
1) Back
2) Hips
3) Knees
4) and most important, I want someone I can hold responsible if anything happens. So off to the dealer & as I said, need some other things looked at and adjusted while I'm there.

So you want to hold someone else responsible for you waiting too long to winterize your rig? Or what am I missing here?

Sorry Mitch, didn't give the front story. Just got back from our southern beach trip. Booked the dealer back in Sept., this was the earliest they could get us in. Only reason we came back when we did.

So, you expect the Dealer to test your complete system BEFORE they winterize?????? Will you pay them to do that? Will you be honest and admit that you had the RV in freezing weather BEFORE you brought it in for winterization? Our policy is simple. IF we had freezing weather before the unit is brought in for winterization, we ask if they want a water system/appliance test BEFORE we winterize. We charge 1.0 hour labor to do that. If the customer declines, we winterize and the RO states that we are not responsible in the spring if freeze damage is found. Doug

You guys are too much. Yes, if I pay someone to work on my stuff I expect them to stand behind it. If I have put the system in danger prior to them working on it I will tell them. Always have, always will, that is why my service people will work with me and give me a priority. This is a new vendor, I have to earn their trust as they earn my business.

Doug, I have found your advise and experience to be very helpful on my previous unit and hope I can depend on it in the future. If I'm ever in your neck of the woods I would love to buy you a coffee/beer. Not trying to get something over on someone, just want them to stand behind their work. nothing more, nothing less.
