2018 CC 38EL - Is plumbing heated?

I have a 2018 CC 38EL. I was wondering if all the plumbing is in a heated space. Is the storage area heated? If I keep the propane heater on do I have to worry about pipes freezing? Can I keep the heater running while towing down the highway?

No not all is in heated areas. The lines going to the washing machine are not. The front compartment is not heated and the lines run through it. Put some fiberglass insulation around the two front jacks and place a small space heater in there on low / med. It will also warm the floor in bedroom. Make sure you keep everything away from heater.

Found the easiest way to keep the basement warm is by hanging an old fashioned incandescent 60W light. Keeps it nice n toasty.....don’t forget to turn on your tank heaters if a freeze is forecast. We also set our propane furnace at 60deg
