Thanks to information learned on this forum, I have spent the last two days cleaning the roof, and removing questionable caulking, re-caulking, and applying UV seal.
I believe that there were 5-6 spots in the caulking (which became evident after cleaning) which would have been potential leaks this winter.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to remove the black spots on the roof, or is it necessary?
I'm getting ready to head to far northern Iowa until the end of December for work. Upon arrival, I will begin getting the KRS-23 ready for fulltiming in freezing weather.
I have to admit that I'm a little apprehensive about what to do to it. I've read just about everything on the forums.
One idea I had was to install a fan switch on the heater blower so that I could run the blower without the propane burner being on. The idea here is to use electric heaters inside (since electric will be free for me), and use the furnace blower to circulate warm air from inside the coach to the underbelly.
I also intend to install some tank heating blankets, and insulate very well underneath, hopefully turning it into a true 4 season camper.
If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears!
Thanks,
ken
