Practical winter accessories Caravans

In order to improve the winter-readiness of your existing vehicle, tailor-made winter accessories are available from Dethleffs Original Accessories. Retailers such as Movera also offer a wide range of useful additions.

For caravans with a roof flue, a flue extension (1) makes sense if there is a lot of snow; special windbreak covers are also available. With heating systems with side-wall flues, there is the risk of condensation freezing and obstructing the exhaust air. Special attachments (2) prevent ice formation. If heating with gas, you are well advised to carry a reserve bottle. The only downside is if you need to change the bottle at night. The DuoControl (3) automatically switches over to the full bottle for you. The lower the temperatures, the better the insulation should be. Thermal mats (4) can be used as additional insulation for your windows. In winter, wheel covers and sleeves (5) for the piping profile prevent cold wind from blowing under the vehicle and into the awning.Water systems can be protected with the universal EisEx heated cable (6), which is laid along the wastewater pipes and powered by the 12V supply. Please note: this requires a compatible connection as well as a suitable transformer for 230V operation. Real winter camping fans swear by floor heating. This can also be retrofitted as an electrical variant. There are also special heating mats (7) which can be laid under any carpet that is suitable for floor heating. They can be regulated via timer, thermostat or dimmer and are available in 12V and 230V versions.
