 Topic: winterizing a 179 PodPosted: 05 Dec 2016 at 6:56pm |
|
I live in the Portland, Oregon area, and I would like to hear ideas about what else I should do to my 2017 RPod 179 for winter storage. I have drained the fresh, gray and black water tanks as well as all four low drain points. I will leave desiccant (calcium chloride) inside and put a fitted cover on the trailer. I'll likely take the battery inside my garage where it will be drier and warmer and I can keep it charged. What else might be necessary?

Might want to drain the hot water tank by taking out the anode rod. Need a 1 1/16" - or is it 1 1/8" - I forget - socket wrench.

1-1/16" a 1-1/8 would work, but would be loose and could possibly round the points on the plug.
