Hi all,
The campground I am at sent out an advisory note to campers recently, providing a checklist of things to do for those that are over-wintering at the campground. Most of the items I have already taken care of (heated and insulated water-line, skirting, etc), but one thing they highly suggested was leaving the tank valves OPEN during the winter months. This goes against all that I have come to understand about full-timing. I wait until I have a sufficient amount in the holding tanks (5 to 6 days), then flush all at so I get gravity assist along the way.
Is this normal winter procedure in very cold climates? Currently in Northern Illinois.
Thanks!
