RE: [Diesel-RVs] Frozen water pipe!

Thanks for all the great advice. I did get the water running again and at
this point it looks like there was no damage. Lesson learned. Will be more
careful going forward.

Thanks again.

John

Hi John

What kind of rig? Does it have two furnaces? Sometimes only one furnace
heats the bays and you may need to run the other furnace.

I agree with Joerg's advice re putting a space heater in the bay where the
plumbing is located. Run the heater on Low to Medium. Once the pipes are
frozen, it will take a while to thaw them out.

Do you have a wireless thermometer you could put in the bay to see how cold
it's getting down there?

Maybe take a trip south for a few days to get thawed out??

Help! I am in Ky, 12 degrees this am. When I tried to get water this
morning there was no water in the hot water line to the shower and no water
to the kitchen sink at all. Water is ok in the rest of the bathroom. I ran
the furnace all night thinking there would be no problem. I have heated
tanks and the temp was over 60 degrees in the RV this morning. What do I do
now? I don't want to cause any more problems by doing the wrong thing.
