RV Tips for Winter

  1. You should always check your camper's seams bi-weekly, especially when the weather starts to warm and get cold - expansion and contraction is really hard on the roof seams and could create huge water problems and leaks
  2. Periodically check for mice damage. Don't assume its ok during the Winter and open it up come Spring time with a suprise visitor.
  3. With the high wind, make sure roof vents are closed good and tight.
  4. It is best to store with the slideouts in during the Winter time because the weight of the snow can keep accumulating and be hard on the slide and also the ice can push up on the seals and allow water to travel through into the inside of your camper onto the floor.
