Winter travel

I have a gas class A
I live in northern New Jersey and store my rig in my driveway. We are leaving for a family vacation to Florida leaving December 8th.
Trying to avoid winterizing then having to drain and sanitize for a week and then re-winterizing again.
Any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

If it's in the driveway you should be able to put a small elec. heater in the wet bays to keep everything above freezing. Another inside the coach should do the same thing.
I am also a big fan of using air to blow out the lines but keep the pressure low and work one line at a time.

We just keep the heat on. More expensive that winterizing but much easier!

Blow the water lines clear and pour a little antifreeze in the drain traps. No problem, I do it probably 6 or 7 times a winter between my 2 m/hโ€™s.

Just be sure to read up on how to *properly* blow the lines clear.

No sanitizing required because youโ€™re not filling the lines with goop, once you get the hang of it, winter ing takes 10 minutes, and getting ready for use takes less than 5 minutes. Hook up water and open taps.
