While Palomino campers are lots of fun during the summer months, they usually end up in a storage lot or garage during the winter. If a camper will be exposed to freezing temperatures, it's essential to make sure it's properly winterized. The following article provides simple tricks and tips on how one can quickly and easily winterize a palomino camper. It's important to understand how sub-freezing temperatures can have a negative impact on the health of a camper's Plumbing system. When the temperature falls below freezing, any water trapped in a camper's plumbing will freeze. If there is enough water trapped in pipes, they may burst as frozen water expands. The best way to avoid freezing problems is with anti-freeze. However, it's essential that one use the right type of anti-freeze in a camper. Since most traditional antifreeze products are toxic, they can't be used in freshwater lines in an RV. Instead, it's important to use products that are created specifically for RVs. In most cases, the average-sized RV will need at least five gallons of antifreeze. After emptying the septic and freshwater tanks on an RV, pour antifreeze down all the drains. It's also important to make sure that one puts antifreeze into the freshwater tank. Once antifreeze has been added to the freshwater tank, it's time to circulate it through the plumbing system. Turn on the water pump for an RV and allow it to run for at least 10 minutes. It's also a good idea to turn on all faucets and taps for a few seconds each. This will ensure that antifreeze is properly distributed throughout the RV. In the spring, it's important to make sure that all the antifreeze is flushed out of the freshwater system before use. It's a good idea to empty and refill the freshwater tank at least three times. This will ensure that any traces of antifreeze are completely removed the from the RV's plumbing system. In addition, this can be an excellent way to ensure that other toxins haven't been deposited into the freshwater tanks of an RV.
