Been caravanning 2 years now and in the season try to get away every other weekend. In the past I have always drained down the hot water tank and have to fill and bleed it every trip. My question is, is it OK to leave the water in the tank for any length of time. This water is just used for washing and washing up, using a fresh bottle for tea etc

We always drain down everytime we leave a site. That's one of Carols jobs and she does it as a matter of habit.

Thank you Steve. Just really grateful to learn this. So, do the valve every time we leave the site and leave it like that (including in storage) until we get to the next site and before filling up with water? Another good tip I got from this forum was leaving the taps as though They are 'on' to avoid water freezing in the tap (hopefully).
Would suggest, for next winter when heavy frost is expected, that you don't leave the shower in the upright position but leave it lying in the bottom of the shower tray. Better still remove the shower head too.
