We have used a van over November and December and found that if you put a tablespoon of Glycerine into the aqua roll fresh water tank, before you fill it, so that the glycerine is distributed in the water, then regular foam pipe lagging on the water pump hose, and a doubled piece of awning flooring wrapped over the aqua roll, the water did not freeze. Word of warning though, DO NOT put more than a table spoon of glycerine or else you will be running to the Loo, a lot!! This worked for us, have just bought a 1991 Compass Oemga, and are using it over Christmas and New Year in Dorset, bit nervous but want to try a Proper winter break, before trying Austria and Germany for Christmas with this van. Down side, No hot water, no blown air heating, Up side, less to freeze and not work in cold weather!. Hard to find winter use information.
