Re: [A/S] Winterizing
Not a rookie question at all. The rookies are the ones with
frozen pipes...
The furnace ducts in an AS have special tubes that actually
go down into the belly of the trailer to keep the tanks and
pipes from freezing. So If you are actually living in the
trailer in ther cold, you're OK. BUT the cost of propanein
the northern winter will be a lot. AS's are pretty well
insulated, but not that well insulated.
If the temperature goes below zero and stays there, the
pipes will freeze even in a house if they are not getting
warm air.
And the electric bill might be a bummer.
It depends where you are.
With all cabinet door open and a fan to get the heat down
below, you might be OK.
