We are currently Full timing in a 1984 35FC. So far we have spent winters in Colorado and Missouri. There has been no problem keeping warm. We insulate the water hook up, which you would have to do no matter what unit you have. The first three years we did nothing to the coach, but three years ago I decided to skirt the unit, and the floors stayed much warmer. I installed snaps along the bottom of the coach and the wife made some skirting from canvas with a loop along the bottom edge. We snap them in place, and put 1 1/2" pvc pipe in the bottom loop to hold them down in a wind. With a 100 watt lght bulb under the dump tanks nothing freezes. (pick a nice colour to go with the coach) It even gives the coach a nice appearance.

That would sure keep everything warm. I bet it was a chore to make all that. Stay warm Ernie in Texas [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
