Thanks, everybody. I am pretty excited to try out the camper, but as I mentioned this will have to wait as Colorado is expecting a sudden winter storm of 2-3 days of sub-freezing temperatures.
Seeing that the weather is going to turn cold, I am looking at putting some RV antifreeze in the water system. The previous owner was very good about doing this even though he didn't use the camper much. He installed a "Camco RV Pump Converter Winterizing Kit" which seems to make the process at bit easier. To be extra cautious, I'm going to go ahead and leave the furnace running @ 40 degrees or so with all the storage compartments open during the next couple of evenings as well.
I have one question though: When I pull the antifreeze through the system via the winterizing kit, i.e. by turning on each faucet in turn and letting antifreeze run through, do I then leave the faucets open or doesn't it matter since there is antifreeze in the system anyway?
