Thermostat temperature
Posted: Fri Oct 26, 2007 9:22 am
Hello,
Can anyone tell me what would the safest temperature we could set our thermostat on in winter so we do not have to worry about frozen pipes?? I've called several HACV companies but never got a call back. In the past we have always winterized our camper but having a mobile home is all new to us and no comparison. The temperatures sometimes get in the single digits but not below zero. We are learning as we go and any help would be appreciated. Also, is it okay to put insulation boards under the home to help?? We do not live in the home full time but we do not want to close it up for the winter as we do plan on staying in the home occasionally on the weekends and through deer season. Its nice to just get away from the craziness in the city.
