Before You Buy Your RV |
Q) Can I use this RV year round (summer, spring, fall & winter)?
A) Only if you have a heated drainage system.
Q) What is a drainage system?
- Fresh Water Tank (drinking water) plus straight pipes and elbows
- Gray Water Tank (kitchen sink/shower water) plus straight pipes and elbows
- Sewage Tank (bathroom waste) plus straight pipes and elbows
Q) How are they protected?
A) Heaters are available for all areas, to prevent freeze-ups.
Q) Is this standard equipment?
A) No, several manufacturers put one (1) or more on the RV. Others offer it as an add-on option.
Q) Are UltraHeat® heaters difficult to use?
A) No, once the "On/Off" circuit switch is turned to the "On" position for the 12VDC-powered tank heaters, or the 120VAC
power cord is plugged into a 120 volt power source, the tank heaters will work automatically. Heat is controlled with a thermostat, which turns "On" automatically when tank
temperatures lower to 44° F (7°C) and turns "Off" automatically when tank temperatures rise to 64° F (18° C). Pipe and elbow
heaters are not thermostatically controlled but rather are controlled by the circuit "On/Off" switch(es). Turn "Off" the circuit
switches to the heaters when freezing temperatures no longer pose a threat.

Q) Is there any maintenance on these heaters?
A) NO, just inspect your unit periodically for damage, loose wires, etc.
Q) Is this a tested and used product?
A) YES, UltraHeat® ensures your enjoyment, adds value to your unit and resale value. This is a wise decision. Protect your investment with "care-free vacation protection." Why be bothered with annoying "fun spoiling" freeze-ups? Tested and certified for RV use, by testing labels for the USA, Canada and Europe.
Q) Do we need to protect all parts of the drainage system?
A) YES, in order to enjoy complete protection of your RV. Being only
partially protected means that you will still be at risk for freeze-ups on the yet-unprotected parts of your
drainage system(s). If cost is a consideration, you (or a dealer) may add protection in phases over periods of time
until you have achieved full protection.
Q) Where can I buy these heaters?
- Order on your NEW RV
- Dealers with service departments can install heaters for New or Used RVs
- Buy direct and self install: Shop Online.
