Simply – Yes, absolutely. Many a seasoned RV enthusiast will tell you that pipes freezing is more than just a bummer on a chilly morning – severely or repeatedly frozen over water lines and tanks can cause real damage to your RV’s water system and potentially other areas of your vehicle.
We all know, as water freezes it expands, which can potentially burst pipes, and damage fittings where freezing is more likely to occur.
The fresh water tank, waste tanks, plumbing and lines connecting your RV to park utilities are all vulnerable to freezing temperatures, and possible cracking, splitting and failure, if the freeze is bad enough.
It’s more than a hassle. Have your RV prepared for cold-weather camping, and know what the weather and terrain will be like. It’s better safe than sorry.
