Will water lines freeze?

We will be heading to Utah (from Minnesota) for a week and Are trying to decide whether we fill our tanks before we go.
The overnight temps for the first 2 nights are forecast to be in the low 20s. After that, it should be above freezing.
I’d we fill our tank, will our lines freeze overnight if the inside of the camper is heated to 65 degrees and it warms up during the day?
  • Depends on how you're heating the camper. If you're using the furnace and the lines are all in an enclosed underbelly, you should be good. If you're using space heaters/fireplace for heating, that heat will NOT go under the trailer. Remember to leave your cabinet doors open below sinks either way.
  • The tanks are on the underbody, which is not heated. I’m not really worried about the tanks though because of the volume and small amount of time exposed to low temps.
