Camping well below freezing - Sweden over winter
Friends of ours have taken a job working 150 miles north of the Arctic circle in Sweden this winter. The temperature gets down to -35 Celcius.
They will be living in their small truck camper. It is a Swedish-made camper so should be capable of reasonably cold conditions, but may not be designed for -35C.
They will have electric hookup.
It is on a diesel truck. Has fresh water and propane tanks as you would expect, plus a grey water tank and a cassette toilet. Hardside, not pop-up. No slide. No basement.
I've seen various things written here about winterising campers, but I assume they are for people storing their campers unused over winter as opposed to living in them.
Does anyone have any advice for coping with these temperatures - what can they put in place in the camper before they go? What do they need to be careful of?
Thanks in advance,
Steve.
