Even with heated bays, etc., it is always a good idea to keep the
cabinet doors slightly open at night to allow warm air to circulate
to the pipes there. Otherwise, it can get awfully cold in there in
the dark!

The alternative is to start the engine, disconnect everything, and
turn the coach until the compass reads South, then drive in that
direction until the water thaws.
