I will be traveling in a 2013 Winnebago 36M which has 2 on board propane heaters and 2 roof heat pumps. I don't think it will be too cold but if I get out there and a front comes through would I need to winterize the system.
Any one have experance in this area? BTW I do not thank my coach has any special heating systems for the Bays.

I purchased a thermostatically controlled outlet from Thermo Cube, Inc. a few years ago to plug into one or more of my storage bay outlets that cuts on at 35 degrees and cuts off at 45 degrees for connecting an additional heat source. If you use a light bulb as someone suggested and don't want it on all of the time this may work for you. I would be careful about locating the light bulb because they can get pretty hot. We use the coach LP gas furnace but also rely on a quartz electric heater inside a lot so we don't run the furnace exclusively. Also as was suggested the water line to the coach should be disconnected unless you have heat tape. I would also shut the sewer valves for the evening and disconnect those as well for the evening for a cold snap. We have already winterized our RV but were camping recently when an Artic cold front came through. We were OK but a neighbor had problems.
