Question

I have only bought a Rapido 691FF this year and would like to know what equipment I need to continue touring in winter. Many thanks

Answer

The answer to question would be very dependent on where you are planning to use your motorhome, if you are planning to use it in the UK then you should not need to make any changes to the equipment you are using as the temperature does not drop low enough to affect it. You would need to make sure you are running Propane gas as Butane will not flow in lower temperatures, but that is all. Remember if you are not using your motorhome in the winter to drain the water system

If you are planning to use your Motorhome in very cold temperatures then there are some changes you would need to make, any external water or waste supply would freeze so the water supply would need to moved to a under bunk internal system, it is possible to fit small heating elements into under slung tanks to stop them freezing but this would not be necessary for a normal UK winter
