Caravan Winter Care Check

If you are planing to store your caravan away for the winter, regardless if it is at home or in a storage facility, you must still ensure it’s properly prepared to protect it from the winter elements. You need to make sure that all water systems are drained in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations.

Caravan Winter Drain Down Service

Over the winter months, water becomes a major problem and although your caravan is not in use, it is the time when the most damage can occur. Water ingress, dampness and mildew are all common problems. In addition, frost damage to your boiler and split pipes caused by freezing water can be a nightmare. The pipework in a caravan is well concealed and the problem often only becomes evident well after the damage has been done.

Help protect your caravan from unnecessary frost damage by taking advantage of our caravan winter drain down service so that you have peace of mind that your caravan is fully prepared for the winter months ahead.
