We have used our caravan all winter for years both touring and when we visit family 250 miles away.
The aqua roll covers sold in most caravan shops we found next to useless, best buy a hot water tank jacket from say B & Q, much cheaper and MUCH thicker.
Gas bottles must be propane for winter caravaning; otherwise sooner or later butane (blue) will freeze up on you.
Lag the top of the water pump from the aqua roll to the caravan inlet, always carry a shovel and De-Icer.
Never assume you gas bottle rubber pipes are ok, 'bend them' and check for any signs of cracks, on our last caravan we always replaced them yearly, peanuts in cost but better than risking a leak!
Before going squart WD40 in all locks, if using a wheel clamp grease any screws.
Hope this might help
Mike
