Having bought our first caravan a couple of months ago, we're currently getting it ready to put its winter cover on. One thing the chap at the dealership said when we collected the van was that we should always drain the water tank after use by opening the small tap in the under-seat compartment where the water heater and tank are located. I did so this morning (as well as opening the taps with the water pump on to drain any water remaining in the pipes), and was wondering whether there's any benefit in leaving the drain tap open over the winter?
On a related note, I seem to recall the chap at the dealership also recommending leaving the stopper on the end of the toilet header tank drainage tube unstopped over the winter. Is this a good recommendation, and why/why not?
