My plan: Camping every weekend in winter conditions (possible 5 degree lows here and there) hooked to 30amp source, gone M-Thur back for work.
When I leave on Sundays...Fill water tank to 2/3, black & gray to 1/3 turn on heatpads and 12v tape on waterline, leave furnace at 45, drain water heater, turn off water pump and open all faucets.
When I arrive on Fridays, close faucets, turn water pump back on, drain black and gray if needed.
Backup plan. In case of power failure when not onsite...Could I turn furnace off and blow lines out through city connections to save propane usage before I leave every Sunday? I would turn off 12v heat tape if I did this and put a heat bulb in fresh water pump area.
Or is it best to leave furnace on at 45 setting?
First year winter camping with water on board. Anythoughts on this or recommendations?
