Yep... the water lines in the basement won't freeze. The water lines in the belly which lay on the plastic belly cover will freeze...... even if you have the arctic package. If you can move them do it before it gets real cold.

Keep your tank valves shut and dump when full. If you leave the gray valve open the sewer line starts to ice up a bit at a time. Pretty soon it closes itself off, then you have to replace it. If you pull the dump valve every 4 or 5 days, the volume flushes and warms the pipe, then drains clean, it's a slow trickle that causes ice to build up.
