Recently purchased a 2013 Winnebago Vista 26HE Class A. It had been winterized in N. Carolina and is now located in north Georgia. Wife, cat, and I plan trip to South Florida leaving Dec 8th with two stops in central and south Georgia.
Due to north Georgia mild temps I have un-winterized the unit in preparation for travel. However, temp predictions a few days before we leave Dec 8th indicate unexpected temps in the mid 20s. I have read that warm air from the propane furnace circulates around the holding tanks as well as thru the living space. I plan to keep the unit heated/warm 24/7 the next few days prior to departure south.
Question: By not re-winterizing is the risk of freezing/ pipe damage a risk I should not take. Should I re-winterize, travel south to warmer climate and then flush out the RV antifreeze? IE, how effective should I expect furnace air
to maintain safe temps. My holding tanks do not have heat pads.
Any experiences from cold weather travelers greatly appreciated.
