Get Your Airstream Travel Trailer or Coach Ready for Alberta Winters

You can expect the temperature to drop in Alberta to -35 degrees Celsius in winter, which means you should winterize your Airstream to prevent damaging your trailer. Airstream of Edmonton specializes in winterization services to protect your Airstream Travel trailer or Coach from Alberta's cold winters.

Why Winterizing Your Airstream is Crucial

Alberta's winters can destroy your Airstream's pipes, lines and more if left unwinterized. By winterizing your travel trailer or coach, you protect it from:

• Frozen Pipes & Water Damage: If you don't drain your lines and pipes, the water will freeze, then expand, and cause damage that will need to be repaired.
• Pests & Weather Exposure: Winterization involves sealing up your trailer to guard it from pests and protect your Airstream from extreme weather conditions.
• Battery & Electrical Protection: Disconnecting your battery and turning off your trailers or coaches electrical systems safeguard components over the winter.

Winterizing your Airstream involves several important steps, and we make the process easy with our expert service at Airstream of Edmonton:

1. Drain All Water Systems: Remove all water from pipes, lines, and tanks.
2. Use RV Antifreeze: Cycle RV antifreeze through the plumbing to prevent freezing.
3. Inspect Seals & Plugs: Check all seams, seals, and plugs to ensure your Airstream is secure from pests and moisture.
4. Disconnect Batteries & Shut Off Electrical Systems: Unhook the battery and ensure all electrical systems are safely shut down.

When Should You Winterize Your Airstream in Alberta?

In Alberta, winter can arrive as early as October. You want to avoid prolonged exposure to our province's extreme climate conditions, which is why we recommend winterizing your Airstream in the fall, when freezing temperatures outside become more consistent, no later than early November.
