Installing Our Winter RVing Secret Weapon!



We’re spending the entire winter in a cold climate, but on a 30-amp site with no propane readily available. We’re installing a new secret weapon for winter RVing, heating only with electric power.

See the planning video here: https://youtu.be/ggWhFZPAmig

Even though we usually snowbird in the winter, there are lots of reasons that RVers don’t always head south when the temperatures drop. We want to be comfortable, and we’re installing a new mod for our rig that will make this a warm winter for us, even up North!

Check out our previous video, where we planned this all out and explained why & what we’re doing: https://youtu.be/ggWhFZPAmig

Join us at http://TheRVgeeks.com for more great RVing content!

Full-Time RVers since April, 2003, we share DIY (do it yourself) RV maintenance, repair, travel, upgrade and operational tips & tricks.

Many RVers are eager to learn more about using, maintaining and caring for their rigs. We hope our experience can help others go DIY, saving time & money, plus the satisfaction of a job well done.

We’re handy RVers, not professional technicians. We’re happy with the techniques and products we use, but be sure to confirm that all methods and materials you use are compatible with your equipment and abilities. Regardless of what we recommend, consult a professional if you’re unsure about working on your RV. Any task you perform or product you purchase based on any information we provide is strictly at your own risk.

We sometimes receive products for evaluation at no cost, and The RVgeeks participate in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. But our opinions are our own, you won’t pay an extra penny, and we only link to products we personally use, love and can recommend to friends with complete confidence.
