Winterising Service

Winterising Excellence at CCCampers

As the seasons change and winter approaches, CCCampers is here to help you prepare your camper for the colder months. Your motor caravan is more than just a vehicle—it’s your gateway to adventure! Our Winterisation Service goes beyond the basics, ensuring your camper is protected from winter’s challenges and ready for spring without the stress of costly repairs.

Why Winterise with CCCampers?

Winter can be harsh on your camper, with cold temperatures and moisture leading to long-term damage. At CCCampers, we believe that prevention is the key to avoiding unnecessary costs and ensuring your vehicle remains in prime condition for years to come. By preparing your camper for winter, you reduce the risk of:

• Frozen Pipes and Water Damage: When water systems aren’t properly drained, freezing temperatures can cause pipes to burst, leading to leaks and costly repairs. By draining the water system and refilling it with fresh tank fluid, you avoid this problem and ensure a smooth start when the warmer months return.

• Gas System Safety: Keeping gas connected during prolonged periods of non-use can be dangerous. Disconnecting the gas system ensures your camper is safe and ready for use when you're back on the road.

• Mould Growth: Cold, damp conditions create the perfect environment for mould and mildew to thrive. This can not only damage your camper’s interior but also pose a health risk. Our service ensures that all living areas are cleaned and sanitised, protecting you and your camper from these issues.

• Fridge Odours: Leaving a fridge uncleaned for long periods can lead to unpleasant smells and bacterial growth. By cleaning and using carbon crystals, we ensure your fridge remains fresh throughout the winter.

• Water Infiltration: Seals around doors, windows, and roofs are prone to wear and tear. If left unchecked, water can seep in, causing structural damage. Our service includes thorough inspections and seal maintenance to keep moisture out.

• Rust and Corrosion: Metal components and moving parts, especially those exposed to the elements, are susceptible to rust and corrosion. Rust prevention treatments protect these parts, ensuring they remain functional and in good condition.

• Loose Fastenings: Over time, fastenings on moving components can loosen due to vibrations and movement. Our winterisation service includes tightening these parts, helping to prevent long-term wear and tear.

By choosing CCCampers for your winterisation, you’re investing in your camper’s future and ensuring it’s ready for new adventures when spring arrives.
