I messed Up!!!!

Well I did not winterize my travel trailer due to the fact that I had planned to take it out next week and was hoping it would be fine. Well I went out to check on it today and I have an issue. The kitchen sink faucet broke, the inside shower head broke and the water filter near the water pump broke. All of these pieces were laying on the floor of the camper when I walked in the camper. How likely is it that there are busted piping? I am kicking myself right now!

  • Don’t beat your self up…..not the first time this has happened.

    I’ve had leaks though the years and fixing pex tubing is fairly straight forward – lots of fittings and info.
  • You'll have to pressurize the lines to know for sure but Pex is able to stretch a fair amount so you may be OK. The most likely places to break are at the fittings, which wont stretch.

    Good luck,
