Camping season is coming quickly in many states, and it’ll soon be time to dewinterize your RV. Dewinterizing your RV means getting your RV out of RV storage, inspecting it and preparing all the mechanics for camping.
If this is your first time dewinterizing your RV, you’ve come to the right place. We asked our RV experts everything you need to know about prepping your RV for another season of making memories!
When Should I Dewinterize My RV?
You want to dewinterize an RV when the weather consistently stays above freezing. If the temperature is still inconsistent, you risk having your pipes freeze. Just like a house, if your pipes freeze and you have water in your tanks, it could damage your RV’s water systems and lead to expensive repairs.
Dewinterizing an RV can take half a day or longer depending on how many systems you have. Prepare your time wisely, and don’t be afraid to seek professional RV service for dewinterization. RV experts are here to help you start the camping season smoothly.
Just remember that all RVs are different, so this is a general overview of how to dewinterize an RV. Not all steps may apply to your RV. Read your owner’s manual before getting started for model-specific RV dewinterizing instructions.
Step By Step Instructions For Dewinterizing Your RV and Preparing For Camping Season
Taking a bit of home with you on the road just got easier with the Thor Motor Coach Scope motorhome. Designed for those who crave adventure, the agile Scope Class B motorhome is easy to park and can be the perfect basecamp for going off the grid or exploring new cities. Thor makes a number of Class B motorhomes on the Ram Promaster chassis. This compact platform allows the Scope to double both as an RV and as a van.
Available in two floor plans that measure less than 18 feet in length, the Scope has all of the same features as many big motorhomes, just in a smaller package. Unlike larger Class C or Class A motorhomes, the Scope Class B doesn’t have walls or slide-outs added during the manufacturing process, which means you can enjoy driving a compact conversion van. If you’re looking to downsize or are beginning the RV lifestyle, this Class B motorhome is ideal for you.
Comforts of home in a compact design
Bench seat pulls out to a three-quarter size mattress
The side sliding door of the Scope opens to a cushioned bench with a removable table that rotates and pivots. The swivel captain’s chairs are not only comfortable for long stretches of driving, but also great for socializing with guests. The bench seat pulls out to a 72-inch by 47-inch bed, comfortably sleeping up to two people. The pull out bed is also across from the electronics cabinet which has an HDMI cable and USB charging ports, as well as an articulating tablet or small TV holder for your entertainment needs.
The Thor Scope does not skimp on storage
Ample storage throughout the interior
The Scope was built for comfort, yet packed into a tough, compact van. Despite its smaller stature, the Scope has an abundance of storage space throughout. The TecnoForm Euro-Style Upper Cabinets are deep and expansive. A large cabinet and pantry drawers provide a place to keep clothing and food, while plentiful drawers in the kitchen area store all of your cooking essentials. Keep towels close by when using the shower in the rear wet bath, with several large drawers providing even more storage space. There are also two low-profile drawers underneath the captain’s chairs, one of which features a water and food bowl combination for your furry friends.
Convenience of a bathroom anywhere you go
Rear wet bath features a shower, cassette toilet and storage drawers
The rear wet bath adds comfort and convenience, giving you the freedom to go off the grid and the benefit of having a bathroom anywhere you go. A cassette toilet replaces the traditional RV toilet and black holding tank. Although it doesn’t hold as much waste as a conventional holding tank, the cassette toilet is easy to empty at a dump station or a public restroom. The Truma Combi Eco Hydronic Furnace and Water Heating System ensures you can enjoy a hot shower after a long day of exploring.
Cooking made easy with features at your fingertips
Prepare home cooked meals while at the campsite or cook some burgers for a tailgate with the two-burner gas cooktop while enjoying a cold beverage kept in the single door stainless electric refrigerator. It also has a freezer for you to store your ice cream and is powered directly from the coach batteries, which are charged by the quiet Onan RV QG 2800 gas generator. No matter your hobbies – hiking, kayaking, cycling – you’ll appreciate the easy-to-clean vinyl flooring and modern interior finishes. Everyone will enjoy more fresh air and views of the outdoors thanks to the large entryway with screen door.
Luxurious driving for long road trips
Swivel captain’s chairs provide luxurious comfort
Every avid traveler seeks convenience in the cockpit and the Scope Class B motorhome is no exception. The Scope is front-wheel drive and constructed with a RAM Promaster 1500 XT chassis. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are integrated into the 7-inch touchscreen dash radio. Hands-free audio control buttons are conveniently placed on the telescoping steering wheel. The radio display doubles as your back-up monitor, so the trailer attached to the 3,500-pound hitch is always in sight. You can enjoy all the features of your RV anywhere with the Scope’s multiple power options. The Scope includes a 30-amp shoreline power cord for connecting at the campsite. When you’re off-the-grid, use the Scope’s standard solar power kit which includes a 190W solar panel and 1000-watt inverter. An Onan QG 2800 gas generator provides backup power as needed.

An innovative rear-door mounted MOLLE gear and bike rack plus cargo tie-down anchors for gear storage mean your favorite outdoor toys can go everywhere with you.
Inside, you’ll have everything you need to enjoy exploring including a wet bath and compact galley kitchen. With an abundance of safety features – the parking package with its 360-degree camera will help any RVer feel more confident – and a 6-cylinder Turbo diesel engine to roam roads less traveled, we agree that the Cahaba is out of this outdoor world.
