While a motorhome has a reasonable amount of insulation in the walls, this is even less true with campers.The walls of a camper may be thinner and certainly don\u2019t retain the warmth particularly well.One of the best tips for winter RV living, even for milder seasons, is to add insulation (and take other steps) to keep toasty warm. Fortunately, insulation is breathable, so campers and trailers stay cool in the summer too.

And RV antifreeze won\u2019t unfreeze the pipes either, contrary to what you may have heard.The pipes will likely freeze up when the temperatures drop to 32\u00baF or below.However, it will require about a day at that steady temperature before they become solid.Measures to insulate and protect from the cold can avoid this outcome.How Cold is Too Cold for a Camper?Given that some people live in RVs in Alaska during the winter, they\u2019d argue that you can get to freezing temperatures and manage just fine.However, their motorhomes are usually entirely winterized to survive it.We\u2019d suggest that when reaching around -19\u00baF (-28 \u00baC), it\u2019s going to be a major issue.Certainly, frostbite is a significant danger. The water pipes on the camper will inevitably freeze, and water valves will freeze as well making it impossible to dump the tanks.Even some gas supplies like propane won\u2019t be usable in sub-zero temperatures.Where possible, plan your location and route to head to warmer climates.Many snowbirds head south as the temperatures begin to drop in the fall to avoid needing to winterize their RV and interrupt their regular routines.https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6JTIJJyZL0IVideo can\u2019t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Winter RVing Tips (Stay Warm in your RV!) | Changing Lanes! (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6JTIJJyZL0I)Read Also: How to Heat a Camper Without ElectricityHow to Insulate a Camper for Winter UseThere are different approaches to keeping the camper warm. The best way to insulate a camper for winter requires several actions working in combination to achieve optimal results.When insulating your camper trailer, it\u2019s designed to stop heat from escaping. Not only does it make the camper feel warmer overall, but it reduces the heating costs too.Here are some tips for insulating RVs for winter living:#1. Add RV Skirting Around the ExteriorRV skirting for winter is designed to surround the camper and prevent air from moving beneath it.There are a variety of materials that work for this, depending on what you have to hand. This includes hay, sheeting, insulation board, and installed siding too.For best results, it\u2019s more useful to set it up for the winter season. If planning to move around during winter, then it\u2019ll need to be installed, removed before relocating, and then re-installed again.With RV skirting for winter, the Adco Wheel Skirt is the best RV skirting for winter:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1MmCv7-6y4IVideo can\u2019t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: RV Storage Solutions | Product Review | Adco fifth Wheel Skirt (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1MmCv7-6y4I)Adco Polar White Skirt \u2013 Model 3501 (64 Inch High x 236 Inch Length)Check at Amazon\u24d8 If you click this link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you.Read Also: Carbon Monoxide Alarm Going Off in Camper#2. Hang Thermal CurtainsThermal curtains are designed to absorb the heat and not let it reach the windows.Reflectix cut out and fit in the windows also works well, but it\u2019s a little awkward to remove when wishing to take a look outside.Pulling back the curtains to take a quick peek and then drawing them across the window again is far easier. They\u2019re also affordable and washable too.These Nicetown Thermal Insulated Blackout Curtains will do the trick. They retain the heat and are triple weave to prevent people from looking in:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=bcmiRU-HmywNICETOWN Thermal Insulated Grommet Blackout Curtains for Bedroom \u2013 Grey Color (2 Panels, W42 x L63 Inch)Check at Amazon\u24d8 If you click this link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you.#3. Seal the WindowsIf you\u2019ve noticed a draft coming from the windows, then it\u2019s important to add a sealant around the window frames to remove it.An RV flexible sealant is what\u2019s required to do the job right. It\u2019s produced to cure and seal even on damp surfaces but performs best on dry ones.This caulking will prevent unintended air drafts, and limit the loss of heat.The Geocel Pro Flex Crystal Clear RV sealant is a good one:Geocel Pro Flex Crystal Clear RV Flexible Sealant \u2013 10 oz. (Model GC28100)Check at Amazon\u24d8 If you click this link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you.A shrink window kit is also useful to prevent air from moving near the windows themselves.They act as a form of double glazing for the camper\u2019s windows.They\u2019re positioned over the frame of each window, and then heat is applied to temporarily seal them airtight.The Frost King Indoor Shrink Window Kit has 9 separate films to cover all the camper\u2019s windows and redo them if necessary too:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qQ2zinfyxQUVideo can\u2019t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: How to install the Frost King Shrink Window Insulation Kit (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qQ2zinfyxQU)Frost King Indoor Shrink Window Kit 42 \u2013 62-Inch, Clear, 9-Pack (Part V73\/9H)Check at Amazon\u24d8 If you click this link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you.#4. Winterize the Water SystemThe RV plumbing system is at risk during winter.The pipes can freeze up and make it impossible to access the fresh water supply, use the greywater tank, or the RV toilet and the blackwater tank too.Unless you\u2019re staying in a warmer winter climate, it\u2019ll be necessary to use RV antifreeze in the plumbing system.Emptying all the tanks and valves of water prevents it from freezing.Fill the RV toilet, bathroom sinks, and shower drain with RV antifreeze to let it run through the pipes and into the various tanks.Note that it\u2019s still possible to use an RV toilet during the winter, but RV antifreeze must be present at each flush and the tanks regularly emptied.https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0LdTdIcNCXAVideo can\u2019t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Best Marine Antifreeze In 2024 \u2013 Top 8 Marine Antifreezes Review (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0LdTdIcNCXA)Splash 619526 RV\/Marine Antifreeze \u2013 Pink (6 gallons)Check at Amazon\u24d8 If you click this link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you.Also, cover the accessible water pipes with wrap insulation to keep them safer from freezing.Doing so raises their temperature enough to reduce the likelihood of a burst water pipe and flooding inside the camper:Frost King Foil Backed \u201cNo Itch\u201d Natural Cotton Pipe Wrap \u2013 3-Inch x 1-Inch x 25-Feet (Part CF42X)Check at Amazon\u24d8 If you click this link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you.#5. Heat the Water TanksPart of how to insulate an RV underbelly is dealing with the exposed water tanks. They can attract ice and water near to them and freeze fast as temperatures plummet.To avoid this, using an RV holding tank heating pad increases the temperature of the tanks to stop them from freezing. Because heat rises, it also helps the camper to stay warmer from underneath.This RV Water Holding Tank Heater Pad can work wonders to keep the tanks usable in winter:Facon RV Water Holding Tank Heater Pad. 2 Packs 7 1\/4\u2033x25\u2033. Up to 50 Gallons Tank. 12-Volts DC Steps Heater Pad.
