We’ve covered servicing, plumbing, electricals, the gas system, appliances AND the toilet in our guide to Winterisation. Now we’re onto the final 2 chapters, exterior and interior .
Exterior
- Ensure that all windows, skylights and access doors are closed and secured.
- Ensure all fixed ventilation points (high and low) are clear from debris and obstructions.
- Ensure the vehicle is not parked where falling debris (i.e. leaves, tree sap) could cause damage.
- Avoid leaving the vehicle parked in soft ground, long grass or a potential area where standing water may form.
- If not being left on road remove road wheels, using the correct jacking points and suitable axle stands.
- Lubricate relevant points on the chassis.
- Or if being left on road wheels rotate wheels (every two weeks) and ensure the correct tyre pressures are maintained.
