Topic: I'll find out if I did it wrong Posted: 23 Dec 2017 at 4:54pm |
Well, the next 10 days here in new england are predicted to be below 10 degrees, and no less than 5 or 6 days below zero. I'll find out if my first winterization was done properly, or atleast " good enough ". The next week will be the big test. Sure do wish i was off somewhere with the pod enjoying the sunshine.

Eastern Ont. here. We're getting the same weather also. Just make sure you test things out next spring... way before... you want to go poddiing, to give yourself time to fix anything.. if need be. We're going on year number 8 next summer and so far.. self winterizing has been good... fingers crossed it stays that way.

Sure glad I live in 'tropical' northern Michigan. We will get to a balmy 11 on Tuesday, ahhh, global warming, you got to love it. Next year will be our 8th year owning our 177 and the last 7 we have winterized using the 1 minute air compressor method; so far so good.
