Winterizing an RV before the Utah freeze

  2. Bypass the heater and pump RV antifreeze to every faucet until it runs pink.
  3. Empty the fridge, prop doors open and remove anything rodents eat.
  4. Reseal roof and window caulk before water can freeze in the gaps.
  5. Disconnect batteries, cover tires and stabilize the chassis fuel.
  6. Book move-in before September 22.
