Air Tubes for Winter Travel

www.airskirts.com - had a friend mention these and thought I'd look it up. Very interesting concept. Wonder if anyone has used them? Looks like it might be real useful if moving thru cold areas

I saw them and I was wondering if you could do that with pool pillows. They may not be as durable.
These could be very useful if you are trying to heat a specific area to thaw pipes or valves.

Les,

You can buy a lot of propane for $2900.

Interesting idea. But too expensive.

True, very expensive. I just talked with our friends that wintered in their 3791 in Ouray CO - He skirted in with 1 1/2" Styrofoam for just under $300 and estimated he could have done the work in 8 hours (one person). His site was gravel so he trenched down 2" and pushed the gravel up against bottom of foam. He two quotes for snap on skirting $2600-$3200 installed. One did stick on snaps and the other did screw on snaps. So foam is least expensive.

Like mentioned in the OP, if you're traveling in the winter year after year it might be worth while. Just found it interesting and thought I'd throw it out there.

What I’m wondering is, we have campers with limited storage where are you going to store all of this?
I think I would opt for the styrofoam and throw it away after I was done with it.

I wonder why they didn't show them installed when on a site that isn't LEVEL?

Least expensive option - don't go where it gets that cold
