Winterizing a Travato
I’m going to be parked in a cold place for about 5 days. It will get to freezing temps at night. What should I do?

Empty the water tanks and just use Jerry cans inside the van instead?

Thanks! I won’t be living in it. It will be parked. Should I turn on the holding g tank heaters? This is all VERY new to me!

If you have holding tank heaters, turn them on!

If your hooked up to electric you should use the heaters but then the tanks must have liquid in them. This will prevent spot overheating. I would go with 5 gallons or so each as a minimum.

Most decent sized RV dealerships offer free or low fee clinics on winterization
