Two Winterising Questions

Last October I winterized the RV. I don’t use the pink embalming fluid, I use clear fresh air and blow the lines. I fill the “P-traps” with the embalming fluid.

Question one: I just realized I have not de-winterized this year. What do I need to do now?

Question two: What is the bigger problem this story points out?

Question two is easy, you need to get out more often!

Sounds like you are all set since you didn't use it, no need to do it again

If you used the trailer I'm assuming you ran water and therefore de-winterized it. Both the waterlines and P-traps will have water in them and the trailer needs to be winterized again.

If you didn't use the trailer nothing needs to be done accept remind yourself next year that you need to get out more.

Due to health/school/and family situations, we have not utilized the RV in over a year. Normally, we average one weekend per month, plus, a couple weeks in summer. Sure hope we do better this next year.

Sounds like you need some prayers from us. How's your health and family doing now?

If you didn't "summerize" you don't need to "winterize"

We don't use ours in the summer but I have to winterize at some point because we don't hit the road until after Xmas.
