Read a lot of posts about winterizing. Don’t get why so many folks use sooooo much antifreeze. First, I turn on the water heater bypass then I blow out my lines with compressed air at 45psi. Next I hook up my 13” winterizing hose to the winterize port, insert hose into a 1 gallon jug of antifreeze and set jug in convenience center. Go inside and turn on the pump, open shower, sink, kitchen sink, toilet, etc valves one at a time till pink fluid comes out. Then outside for shower and low point drains. Takes less than 1 gallon. The left over I pour into the drains and toilet bowl. The RV sits in outside storage all through northeast Ohio winters. Been doing this routine for the last 13 years on three different units.
Different strokes for different folks.
