Winterize
First winterizing today and took info from this forum about the antifreeze method, which I have used with other less complex units over the past twenty years.
Everything is going fine using the usual routine; sinks, shower, toilet, and washer connection (no washer), pink stuff is flowing. When I get to the last couple of steps, I'm having some issues. Again, I've taken the info from the MOC and the author's advice is a bit confusing.
First, I have the outside shower in the UAC, but nothing comes out when I turn the handles, plus the pump just keeps running. It wasn't like this for all of the other faucets and everything flowed as expected. In other words, why doesn't the pink stuff come out of the shower in the UAC like it did at all of the other outlets?
Two, the author states to "Connect a short hose from the outside faucet to black water flush valve and run until you hear flusher." My question is, what faucet? This statement makes no sense and conflicts with the manual and Keystone video which states either blow out this line with compressed air under 30 psi or use a hand pump to inject antifreeze into line (see your dealer for the pump).
Lastly, reading from the same author, it is stated to "Connect a short hose from the outside faucet to street water inlet and turn convenience center valve to fill and flow for a few minutes." Again, what faucet and this statement makes no sense to me, either?
In summary, can anybody help me to finish the task with the outside shower issue, black water system, and street water inlet. Waiting to hear, with garden hose in hand.
