Moreover, we offer an expedited mobile rv winterizing service that will get you prepared for storage in no time! But you still might be asking...when’s a good time to winterize my RV? Or maybe even..why should I winterize my Recreational Vehicle? Don’t worry, we’re going to cover our step by step process of winterizing your precious camper. That way, you can rest easy knowing your vehicle is resting easy. We’ll also cover why winterizing is important and other questions that our customers frequently ask. So let’s dive in… The first step we take to winterize the RV is to remove and bypass the water filters. Depending on your preference, we'll either blow out the existing water or use antifreeze to ensure no water freezes in your pipes during the cold winter months. |

Next, we’ll take care of your black and gray water tanks. It is NEVER a good idea to leave your waste tanks for prolonged periods of time. We clear out both tanks and then clean them using a special septic cleaner or wand. This ensures there is no bacteria breeding in your tank systems over the next coming months.
After that we’ll drain your water heater and water lines. These include lines like your water pump, ice maker, water heater, washing machine, water filter, and other existing appliances.
If you’re wondering if you can winterize your RV without antifreeze the answer is yes. We can conduct a stand alone rv winterization with air or complement it with antifreeze. It really comes down to the customer’s preferences and long term storage requirements.
Before we do add the antifreeze, we ensure that we will bypass the water heater. The last thing we need is antifreeze residue stuck in your heating system. Most RV’s have a bypass system installed. If yours doesn’t, we’ll gladly install one for you.
Finally, we will add antifreeze to your system. As mentioned before, there are ways we can winterize RV without antifreeze but in cold areas like Spokane or Spokane Valley, we recommend using antifreeze.

When should I winterize my RV?
Typically, you should consider winterizing your recreational vehicle in late fall when the average daily temperature is approaching the freezing point of 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The last thing you need are burst or broken pipes as a result of frozen water. Many people wonder what month to winterize their RV but it really comes down to location and temperature. In Spokane we personally recommend October.
