I'd agree with blowing the lines out and disconnecting the batteries. If you have access to a 15a circuit, you could plug your chargers in, but would have to worry about a power failure getting things out of whack (routine occurrance in OK). You might even consider draining the tanks to eliminate any extreme issues. I used to store mine routinely and did so.

Wow I have been prepping for the Alaska trip ever since last summer. So many things to buy and make to accommodate all we ned for the trip. Have secured a storage unit in Yuma Az. as we will be returning here next fall.
The storage is inside and will have 20 amp power so I plan on leaving the battery charger connected. One thing that came to mind last pm is should I block the coach as the air does leak out. I don't want to leave the compressor on as it will be 7 months before we return and just don't like the idea of something like that running and if there was a problem then what. Doe anyone know if the coach would eventually rest on the wheel wells ok or would there be damage? Found some diesel treatment that has good reviews (Biobor) so the tanks are treated.

Brad, I have let all the air out of my bags a number of times and had no problem. We are talking about a 99. I presume on a 88 it would be OK. If it were me I would let all the air out of the bags on my 99 if I were going to leave it for that long.

I discussed long term storage with Newell staff and they advised that it is OK to let all of the air out of the bags.

Please be aware that blowing the water out of the lines will NEVER remove all of the water from the fresh water loop in the Aquq Hot.
