How to drain down your Caravan & AVOID DISASTER!

[@stewchesman5259]

Hi, great video. I've been doing this since 1984 and have been lucky to never have frozen pipes. I found the Floe system about six years ago for about thirty quid, and as something you only use once a year I still wouldn't be without it. It's a great tool and you did really well to find it for a fiver. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your time ;))

Thank you! We use our van a lot in the winter, but I always check the forecast, some weeks there is not a chance of it going below zero!

Excellent video Lang , well explained. Wish we'd had this last winter when we bought ours it would have saved much scratching of the head 😂😂

Haha! Beleive me, I wish I had have started YouTubing a year earlier - then we both would have be happier haha

We got 1.5 more litres out using a “floe” drain down system and that was also leaving the waste pipes open on the way home too. Well done you picking it up for a fiver!

Wow, that's a lot of extra water!!! Makes it well worth doing!!

Hi Lang and Sara. Great tutorial Lang. I've been lucky, caravanning since the 80s not had any burst pipes yet. Surprising how much water came out. Wouldn't pay £50 but a fiver sounds great well done for finding it. Can't think of any second hand caravan shops in Peterborough. Thanks guys. Thumbs up thumped 👍 ....Pete and Su....

The are often attached to the smaller caravan dealers (think they sell the stock that comes back with used caravans). I think the normal way of draining down is sufficient!

Bargain eBay they are £50 upwards 😮

[@LangSara]

Yes I was shocked to find it so cheap!!
