Starting to look like what we went through a few years back with the deep freeze power failures South of Houston
Given the coming cold I plan to take the usual precautions. Disconnect water, hoses inside, make sure gas tank and propane take full. We have 50 amp where we are and when it gets cold inside we use one or two 1,500 ceramic heaters to keep a comfortable temp. Haven't heard any instructions from the park (State campground) so far as typically they would come around with some instructions related to park water for those not used to this kind of cold.
But given just how cold we're looking at now, thinking additional steps might be in order. Running the propane coach heater at times to keep temps moderated for one. Don't really want to do a full winterizing but perhaps a small ceramic heater in the water bay overnight?
Of course we don't want to overload the power and wondering about how power is distributed. Coach is connected to 50 amp and if I connected a small space heater to the 120 is that totally separate with respect to overall usage?
