antifreeze

Is the pink Antifreeze environmental safe? If I dump on the ground will it kill grass and the dog? If it is dangerous where do I dispose?

Well, the weather going above freezing and the snow starting to melt has only accelerated my desire to get the trailer out and start prepping for the season. Since I like to be prepared (must be all those years of scouting) I'm currently reviewing the dewinterizing process. I've found lots of...

Walmart doesn't carry. Face palm! Would appreciate any leads. Or, should we just blow the lines on the unit? If so, where does a girl do that from? Thanks again.

I've got a '14 Berk 390FL 60. Anyone else smelling antifreeze when the motor is running? I can't see anywhere that it's leaking and the level doesn't appear to be dropping. I've noticed this since new. Only have around 3k miles on her. Is this normal with diesels? Also, ran it for a little over...

Some use a pump to push antifreeze through the fresh water system, but some of us just put it into the fresh water tank and let the coach's pump do the work. A problem doing this with our Sunseeker is that the tank fill is high and trying to hold a funnel and the antifreeze over your head is...

I need to winterize my 21SS this weekend and I'm not quite sure how to get the antifreeze into the system. With my PUP, I poured the AF into the fresh water tank & then used the water pump to circulate it through the system. However, the 21SS (2013 model) has an input for antifreeze right next...

I have always winterized my own units, because they were small....I just hooked up my air compressor and blew out the lines, and added antifreeze to the drains and p-traps. But now I have a larger, more modern, trailer that has an outside 'antifreeze port' , so I thought I'd give it a try...

Does anyone know if Orschelin brand antifreeze contains alcohol or any other chemicals that might be harmful to seals? I bought a few gallons (on sale) not knowing to check the content label for alcohol. Low and behold, Orschelins does not have a content label on there product. I don't want to...

There's a bunch of different brands of RV Antifreeze (the Pink Stuff) that you can buy. All seem to protect down to -50 degrees F. Wondering if they're all basically the same or are there differences to consider. What do you use?

I am winterizing my Roo 23SS soon and I've been doing my homework on how to do this. I do have a air compressor so I can go either way. I think I'd rather blow out the lines and add a little anti-freeze to the p-traps and tanks rather than pump anti-freeze into the entire plumbing system. Anyone...

Winterization - do you blow out or do you fill with antifreeze? So, which do you do? Why? I have a Roo 183 and am inclined to blow out the lines, but I suppose this is the least effective method? Thanks!

When i winterized our TT today, first blew out the lines with air, then ran antifreeze trough, then blew out with air again. During the process of the AF, because of air in the lines some AF was misting in the air and the LP alarm went off, twice? thought that was strange. Maybe some chemical in...

In a conversation with a friend, I learned that another friend [ a man ], reuses his RV antifreeze from year to year. In the Fall he blows out the water lines with air, and then pumps antifreeze through the system. Then when Spring comes, he blows out the lines and puts the antifreeze, back...

Hi, How much RV antifreeze will I need to winterize my camper? Anything else do people usually need to purchase to winterize there camper? Getting ready to make an order and trying to get everything I need for winter.

Ha ha, thought i'd catch a few of ya with that title! seriously, we just got this fr georgetown 375ts and have looked in vain for where the antifreeze siphon hose attaches for winterizing. on my old unit (1999 coachman class c), it was right by the manifold with easy access to the pump switch to...

Hello, my new ROO 233s has the antifreeze inlet. I understand how to use it thanks to logic, videos and comments from this Site... So thanks! ill be winterizing soon for the first time perhaps this weekend. So, I get the draining of the lines, the draining the HW tank, the bypass the HW, the...

Ok- I sometimes forget how much of a newbie I still am. For the pop-up, we only blew out the lines. For the fifth wheel, I did that, but I did also want to pump antifreeze into the system but I'm not sure how to get the antifreeze from the bottle into the water system. Sounds dumb, I know. My...

All the winterizing threads always talk about RV antifreeze. The pink stuff. I just don't know why regular antifreeze cannot be used. To why not windshield washer fluid. Gotta be a reason. Can someone enlighten me please?

Need some help. Tried using the exterior inlet today to winterize my 8319SS. I bypassed the water heater, shut off valve to fresh water tank, but antifreeze would not pump from jug. Seems simply enough, not sure why it didn't work. After several tries, I disconnected the fresh water inlet to...

Winterizing my 2007 Roo for the first time by myself. Neglected to close the cutoff valve for the Water Heater untill after I added about half a gallon to the system. Pulled the drain plug on the water heater and let the antifreeze drain out. Not sure if there is a problem with having...

just wondering if its necessary to put a liter or so of antifreeze in the freshwater tank? I have done this in the past 3 years but it takes a while to get it out of the system in the spring.(maybe this explains the lump on my neck,just kidding:roflblack:) We have never used the water for...

So, we have a new Palamino Hybrid, 23' with the two bunk ends that extend. Took it out last week to test it out in colder temps to see how it worked. Even down to 38 degrees F we were toasty warm between furnace and/or space heater. Even extended both beds...used the heated mattresses and had...

The other day my neighbor, who is a first year owner of a seasonal camper next to mine, asked me a question about filling his fresh water tanks with antifreeze and pumping it through the trailer verse connecting it through a special adapter. Now, I've always flushed the line using air or pumped...

Depending on which forecast I look at, it could dip to around 29 deg from 0500-0700 tomorrow morning. Trying to decide if I should head to the storage lot and run antifreeze through my trailer. My concern is any trace amounts of water from this weekend that are in the shower heads or faucets...

Hi, Just bought a new to me forest river Rockwood 5th wheel. Wanted to flush the system out to make sure everything was in working order. Well, I got in there and I noticed the water was a green color when flushing it. should I be concerned? I expected pink but was not sure if some places...
