Many people enjoy their RVs during the spring to fall months. But once it gets cold, they often put it away for the season, opting to stay home. Here at The Insurance Outfit, serving the greater Chester, NJ area, we have seen rain and snow damage RVs that are not properly stored or protected from the elements. Here are some tips to help you adequately protect your RV from winter weather when it’s not in use.<\/p>\n

Use a Good Cover<\/h2>\n

Buy a strong cover that fits your RV well. This cover will keep rain, snow, and ice off your RV and help prevent water damage and rust. Make sure it’s made for tough weather and freezing temperatures.<\/p>\n

Seal Cracks and Holes<\/h2>\n

Check your RV for any cracks or holes. Use sealant to close gaps around windows, doors, and vents. This stops water from getting inside and causing damage. Also, check the roof seals to ensure they are in good shape.<\/p>\n

Clean the Roof<\/h2>\n

Before winter, clean your RV’s roof and look for any damage. Fix any cracks or holes to keep water out. A clean roof helps stop snow and ice from building up.<\/p>\n

Drain Water Systems<\/h2>\n

Empty all the water tanks and pipes to stop them from freezing and breaking. RV antifreeze can be used in the plumbing to protect the pipes from the cold. Make sure all the water is out before storing your RV.<\/p>\n
