The following are suggested preparatory
actions to prepare for full-hookup winter camping at Shamrock Park:
Check specific actions recommended in your camper’s manual.
See our skirting policy located on this website for protecting the bottom
of your camper to prevent freezing. Check to see what will work best for your
specific camper.
You should have a heated hose that will prevent water from freezing
in your line from our water hookup to your camper inlet.
Heat tape should be utilized if you choose not to use a heated hose.
Insulate every part of your water source for your camper. Even a
little exposed part can result in a frozen line.
Be sure to shut the valve to your black water tank as it can freeze. Your
sewer hose should be well supported and run downhill.
A water splitter is not allowed as it will cause freezing.
Choose your fuel source: electric or propane. Compare costs.
multi-sensor thermometer monitors the temperature in your RV.
Keep water/snow off your slides to prevent malfunction.
We use heat rods so our water service won’t freeze; once your water
line is set, frost/snow will help seal the perimeter of the protective “green box”.
This is a good but not exhaustive list. Do your
own research for your needs.
