    Default Dewalt D24000 and Frost, Beware

    I got it out of the van and set her up this morning ( I left the water tray on site) and the water pipe and I assume the pump was frozen.Left it for an hour and it worked fine, Phew

    My question is should I bring her in at night now or is there a way to fully drain the pipes and pump, what do you other dewalt owners do?
    Cheers

    Mines in the garage probably frozen, will run the pump out of the water to ensure pipes are empty, but no doubt there will be some water left somewhere, when i use it next !

    Ditto.

    Tommy, we also go to the laundry sink and get a bucket of hot water and pour that into the tray first thing in the morning.

    The new ones have a lining on the roof too! I have one and no condensation at all keeping me tools nice and dry!
    My m8 has the 09 transit and when you look in the back in the morning everything is frozen even the tools
