Hi from Soggy Northampton.
Much advice on storing caravans in winter here, emptying all fluids etc, but here's our newbie query about using it in a freeze. The aquaroll lives, I believe, just outside. Do you get problems with the water freezing? Or other frozen fluids?
We're hoping to collect our first ever caravan quite soon, dependent on engineer check etc. As it's 2nd hand and doesn't have a long warranty ... (what's a usual warranty period with 2nd hand dealers, by the way?)... we'll need to take it for a test trip soon. Fine, extending the season is part of the planned move away from tents, but we hadn't necessarily intended our first trip to be in the depths of winter! If we had a CDP at home it would be tempting to try it on the front drive, but would feel like cheating!
And cooking and breathing in it in the cold presumably creates more condesnsation, so do you need to give it a good ventilate when you get home?
Thanks for any help,
Richard.
