How to Winterize a Park Model Trailer
A park model trailer gives you an opportunity to travel or even live comfortably. Park model trailers are taken from recreational park to recreational park and stay in each place for an extended amount of time. You also can, with a park model trailer, permanently park it and use as a permanent living space. However you decide to use a park model trailer, you must make sure the elements will have the smallest possible effect on your trailer, especially in winter. Winterizing your trailer takes some time and effort, but can save on costly repairs that might be necessary if your trailer is not ready for winter.
