camping trailer water lines freeze?

[AWS]

My wife has been out on the road with the RV since mid Oct. and just spent a few weeks in CO temps hit -12 in talking to the folks on the road full time if is getting cold low 20's and lower drain and rv antifreeze is the way to go heat your bath water on the stove.  She was using RV antifreeze in the tanks and had to heat tape them to be able to empty them.  Skirting and a heater underneath in realy cold weather.

what year is the trailor..If you keep it warm you will be fine,do put food grade antifreeze in the holding tanks,that is the only problem we ever had with ours ..I run a honda 2000 24 7 while hunting,older trailors tend to have more problems

You bet your a$$ those lines will freeze in RV's. Pain in the rear in some places. Some RV's are worse than others. I've been pretty fortunate with our trailer.

We haven't had problems with the lines freezing in ours, it has the pex piping.  The one thing to think about is that most of the fittings on the connections are cheap plastic, this is what usaully cracks/breaks.

Heater Buddy, that's the ticket. 24/7 expensive insurance, but it's cheaper than replacing the broken lines or hot water tank.

I would just leave the pipes blown out and kinda rough it. It is the same plumbing as if you were in a wall tent. I would keep my lines water free, and use the camper like a wall tent. Sleep, eat, cook, just dont use the drains in the camper! That way nothing gets frozen in your camper.
