I have spent many nights dry camping in temps below 20 degrees and haven’t had any issues. I don’t even run my heat at night either.

2017 Jayflight 28BHBE mods

Glue and screw a 2x2 frame to the plywood and then install a rail on the wall and the divider you installed to support the 2x2 frame. That would make it plenty strong.

My warranty just ended but when I had taken it in previously the kitchen faucet was on the list. I was told that’s just the way the faucet is. Hope you have better luck.
