Winter Camping 2004 Itasca Sunrise 30W

Would it be necessary to add heat in the water bay during camping if it is in the 20s at night? Is the area where the water lines run heated by the propane heater, or can I place an small oil heater in the water bay just to warm the underbelly?


Thank you.

I don't know your specific coach, but in my experience as long as the interior is not all that cold, say 50+ degrees overnight then the water pipes won't freeze if it gets down to the 20s at night as long as the outside air temp warms up above freezing, say 40+ degrees during the day.

Since they are usually exposed, the grey and black pipes upstream of the block valves can freeze partially, but usually don't freeze solid in the conditions noted above.
