• As winter approaches closer, it will be time to
  prepare for the last trip if you didnt go
  anywhere this season.
• Within a short time from now, you will prepare
  for the winter repair and care of your caravan.
• Yes, for quite a long time it will stand idle.
  Hence, proper care should be taken so that it is
  ready after winters.
• Here are some useful tips for that.

1 Choose a safe location

• It is important to choose a safe location to keep
  the caravan intact during winter months.
• For that, you should contact a professional
  storage company. Get the testimonials from
  existing clients to know about the quality and
  reliability.
• Is the place manned by guards? Are there security
  cameras installed? What level of insurance does
  the storage company have?
• The level of easiness to access the caravan is
  also important.

2 Protect the caravan from frost damage

• Outside temperature drops during winters. When it
  goes beyond a certain level, the risk of frost
  damage goes high.
• Once you park the caravan and you are sure that
  it will be parked for a few months, it is
  essential to drain the water system completely.
• By doing that, you ensure that the taps and
  fittings, pipe work and water heater components
  do not get frost damage.
• The water heating system is costly, and it needs
  protection from frost damage.

• Open all the taps at once. Keep the lever of
  mixer taps in the center position so that you
  drain out hot and cold water completely.
• Open all drain valves. Remove all drain plugs.
  Shake free water from the showers after removing
  a shower head.
• Do you have any internal water storage tank in
  the caravan? If yes, then make sure it is fully
  drained.
• The water filter has to be removed to prevent
  damage from dampness and frost.
• Before running the internal pump, you should read
  the operating manual. Some pumps are not made for
  dry running.  In such a case, you have to call
  the support team for the suggestion.

3 Cleaning

• Once you are through with everything, it is
  important to clean the caravan thoroughly. It
  will not be used for a few months. Hence, do not
  leave any garbage inside.
