2022 Coachman Concord CLASS C MOTORHOMES Winter Camping Precautions

When using your RV in freezing or below freezing temperatures, these precautions should be taken:

Make proper preparations to avoid freeze damage to the fresh water and drainage systems.
Propane regulator freeze-ups can occur in any weather if there is moisture in the tank or if the tank has been over-filled. Always use moisture-free propane fuel and make sure the tank is not filled beyond 80% of capacity.
Prepare for more frequent furnace operation that will increase battery draw and propane use.
During cold weather, it is very important to continue utilizing your vents and vent fans. This will keep the humid air inside moving to the outside.
Keeping the RV tightly closed during cold weather will increase condensation. During cool weather usage, the use of a dehumidifier (customer supplied) may be required to reduce condensation.
To avoid damage due to cold weather, check the exterior extrusions for frozen moisture before operating or using the RV’s compartment doors, locks, slide rooms, windows, vents, etc.
