I hope everyone is properly winterized

[Crabman]

According to the Weather Channel 175 million give or take a few will be below freezing tonite, and in many cases well below. Here's hoping all of us that need to be are all properly winterized .

We camped in below freezing temps the last 2 nights. Came home today and winterized for the first time on my rig in 6 years. It's going to be cold in the morning for lowcountry SC.

[Crabman]

It got down to 15 last night with cold forecast into next week, some nights single digits. Thats cold for eastern VA.

[Midnightmoon]

The highest temp I have seen in a week was today and we made it up to 8. Had the fuel in my truck gel for the 1st time in the 11 years I've owned it on our way back from NY on Thursday. Supposed to drop down to a few degrees below zero again tonight.

Heck, they're even calling for snow flurries in N. Marion County in FL.

12 degrees this morning without wind chill. Haven't been over 25 since last night. Not even lookin at what tonight is supposed to be all I know is when I leave at 4 a.m. to go to work it's goin to be cold. Camper winterized and plugged into home to run heater for just in case.
For those of ya that live in places like Canada and Alaska my hats off to ya, oh wait it's froze to my head. I don't know how you do it for those long periods of time.

Interesting comment about the gel of your fuel. Thought the fuel sold in the upper Midwest contained the anti gel additive. Our temps have been 20 down to +9 this am. Have experienced below 0 temps before without gelling issues. I added my own additive before the last fill so under any circumstance I should be ok but this is only my 4 year as a D owner. What about the fuel sold down south? Should I add additive to that fuel when I head north?

The fuel should be winterized, but the tank I purchased in NY either wasn't or it had water in it. I always add a few oz of white bottle Power Service in the winter to each tank also, but it wasn't enough to combat whatever was in the fuel I purchased.

I would definitely add some anti gel additive if you are heading from south to north in these temps.

I'm sure you're good.

My htt is stored up north, not far from my parent's place. They stated yesterday morning was -29oF. Glad, I blow out the lines, before adding antifreeze. It should have nearly full protection to -50.

High here today was 39. Temp right now is 28. Supposed to go as low as 16 tonight. Lows this week will be in the low to mid 20's till Saturday night. I know it's a lot colder for many of you, but this is getting pretty cool for the sunny south. This is the first time I have fully winterized my fiver, usually just blow the lines out, drain the water heater and holding tanks. I pumped the pink stuff thru all the plumbing and added it to the p-traps and holding tanks. Following the posts from those of you who must winterize every year made it a lot simpler for me. Many thanks, and hoping everyone can stay warm.

Dewinterized mine on Saturday. We left ON on Wednesday and are currently in Benson AZ. Was -35C (-31F) back home on Thursday, 75F here today.

I'll bet there's a huge run on RV antifreeze this year. I wonder if Walmart is still selling it for $2.58 a gallon. I have 6 gallons sitting in my garage if anyone needs any. BTW, it freezes to a somewhat solid state around 0* but doesn't expand so no worries.

[Witt74]

$2.58 a gallon as the going price at my local Walmart

[edatlanta]

Not winterized here. 19 F last night and 16 F right now. I do have a 150 gallon external propane tank and I do use my furnace all the time. I have used this same setup with it down to 8 degrees with no issues. Sucking up a lot of propane, but I can live with that. I'm warm and my pipes are too.

-5 below here is morning. I just pray that when hook up to city water in the spring that I did everything correctly and everything survived. I have to replace the outdoor shower head that may have froze last winter but we rarely use it.

[TCNashville]

First time out this spring I'll be using the pump to pressurize the system. I'll do a visual first and then let the pump tell me if I have any leaks.
