Greetings:
I live in Florida and haven't winterized my camper before. We do, occasionally in Jacksonville get below freezing temps. And I am, right now, still in Maine from the summer and planning to leave before freezes settle in.
So I'm trying to sort out how low (and for how long) I can push things without risking damage. Clearly at 31 degrees for an hour over night isn't going to ruin stuff, but what will? Most winters we have a few nights that drop to 28 in Jacksonville. I can have the tanks empty (or low enough that expansion won't break them) so I think the most worrisome point is the pump, no?
Any thoughts on how cold it has to be and for how long to cause damage? What if I turn on the heat? Or I have a small electric blanket I could lay on the floor (and the camper has 20 amp service here in Maine).
I'm not looking to stay for the winter and avoid winterizing, just an extra little protection for marginal temps. Advice appreciated.
