    The best way to keep a caravan or motorhome in good condition is to use it all year round 😃 It’s also good for the caravan owner too 👍🏻😉 Trev

      Hi Trev, yep definitely right there. Looking into winter seasonal for next year.
      Hope you are both well, take care

      Hi Deb, yep it's gone too fast this year. I do less and less with the van every winter. Speak soon x

    No need to apologise, Martin, just do what you want to do, mate.

      Hi Graham, hope you are enjoying retirement. I just try and do what I want to do, wish I had more time for the YT stuff but don't seem to these days. Role on retirement then I can do a vlog a day!
      Cheers

    Hi Martin, We never do anything to the van over winter, but we do try to us it all year round and so far, never had a problem. Merry Christmas

    Hi Martin. Same as me do less and less each winter. It can be overwhelming where do you stop. Have a good Christmas 🎄 and new year

      Hi Paul, these things are supposed to be manufactured to withstand the elements so I just think let it do its job.
      Have a cracking Christmas

    Hi Martin. We will be leaving ours as is as well mate. We are going away for new year but then it will stand for about 3 months. Caravan is looking good. Have a great Christmas 🎄 Paul and Sarah

      Hi Paul & Sarah, we are hoping to do a winter seasonal next year so will get more use out of it.
      Have a great Christmas and hopefully a break from the steering wheel!
      Cheers

    Nowt better than doing nowt Martin ! 😂
    Only other thing I do is blow the residual water out with home made pump thing which does the same as the flojet doodah but cost nowt … Got over a litre of water out of system - just as well given the recent freeze
    Cheers Martin for good vlogs as ever👍🏻

      Hi Howard
      They are hopefully designed to withstand the elements!
      I might try to make my own pump to get rid of any water, mind you, I’ve been saying that for about 6 years!
      Cheers

    Hi Martin I’m hopefully getting mine back to storage I’ve been waiting to wash it but it’s been frozen! I’ll be putting my cover on and I’m away in Feb too. Best wishes, is it too early to Wish you Happy Christmas? Well I’ve done it now 😂😁👍

    • @TheCaravanNut

      Hi Colin, yep it's gone a bit cold for washing the van. I ripped my cover a couple of years ago getting it off the van. Soon be February! Marry Christmas to you and yours, cheers

    If you are changing the drain valve have you considered using the Tuma frost protection control valve, auto dumps when temp is 3 deg, like a fail safe system

      Oh, thanks for the info. Will have a look at that.
      Cheers

    I'll follow your Lead. Unfortunately I don't have solar panel, so will need to remove battery 😢

      I put the solar panel on as I kept getting grief for a leisure battery being in the utility room! 🤣 cheers
