Should I leave the MH plug in all winter?
Do any of you leave the Motor Home plug in all winter.
Forum Discussion
We have a smart charger and leave the MH plugged all the time when not in use. We turn off the propane.
On our unit when ever the MH is plugged into shore power it will automatically turn on the converter. Can't turn off the DC when motorhome is plugged in.
To extend the life of the propane detector I disconnect it....little plug at the rear. I know it is critical to be sure to plug it in before we use the motorhome. A little note on the steering wheel is helpful.
Our temperatures are moderate enough that we do not fully winterize. Just drain the fresh water, drain the lines, then put some RV antifreeze in the holding tanks and sink/shower drains. Open all the doors that can provide heat access to water lines, then have a small heater turned very low. It keeps the inside temperature above freezing, usually 38 to 40 degrees and helps to lower the humidity inside the motorhome.
Makes it easy to use in the Winter if we get some decent weather. Load up some water and go.
