Heat on vs winterizing
Hi. I have a 2017 keystone bullet with “winter “ system. I live in Nashville tn. What are my options for winterizing. Can I drain the hot water tank and leave heat on 50oc for winter or do I need...

Thank you guys. I figured since it had the four seasons package it would be ok to leave heat on. One question though. It did get to 29oc overnight here once really early in the season and it caught me by surprise. I had not drained the water heater or turned the heat on. How would I know if I caused a line to freeze up and blow? Is this likely for one night below freezing?
I would not be concerned about one night that got down to 29deg. It takes time for water to freeze solid. Now if it only gets up to 35deg each day and 20 each night, that is a different story. Regarding the heat. Since it is a four season trailer, turning the heat on low would be fine. This works well if you only get below freezing occasionally. If you live in a climate that routinely gets down into the 20s at night and may not make it above freezing in the daytime, should definitely winterize.
