    Two easily missed things during winterizing.

    Just a couple things for first time winterizing people. First, before pumping antifreeze use a 5 gallon bucket and empty anything remaining in waste tanks. This will allow a greater concentration of antifreeze at the waste valves. Second, after done running antifreeze through faucets, toilet...

    Using the winterizing port

    I was wondering, Is the winterizing port on the rear of my 2806BS only for hooking up the air compressor to blow out the lines? If so (or not) how does one run antifreeze into the lines? I use to take off the water pump feed and hook it up to a gallon of antifreeze. Thanks in advance

    First Time Winterizing

    Heya, I’m going to have a go at winterizing and have a couple of questions. I have antifreeze but don’t seem to have a hose connection on my water pump, as in the picture. However, I do have two connectors on the ends of the pipes near my hot water heater. Can either of those have a...

    Winterizing Air Pressure

    Good morning. I have read several of the winterizing threads, but still have a question. I am looking at a 100 p.s.i. pancake style air compressor from Harbor Freight. (On sale for $39.00.) Is that enough pressure to properly winterize my coach? We live in Georgia so we don't get the extreme...

    Shore power during winter

    Can I leave my 2018 DX3 37RB plugged in to shore power all winter? I'm hearing conflicting reports. What is the right answer? Is the answer to disconnect batteries using switch, but leave shore power plugged in to trickle charge? Or is it something else?

    Winter camping - Forester LE 2251SLE

    Hi, What do we need to do to keep our water tank and pipes (shower, faucets, etc) from freezing? I’m not sure if furnace vents to our tank. We’ll be in electric only site, so will have water tank filled, add antifreeze to black and grey water tanks and the external hoses won’t be connected...

    Winter battery storage

    We winterized our camper and put it up for the Winter. I usually take the batteries out and put them in the garage on a trickle charger. Some people I know just leave them in the camper until Spring. I am curious what other people do

    Just Winterized

    We just winterized our Roo over the weekend (already ready for spring) and upon doing it for this our first time discovered there is a bypass for our hot water tank which we realized after we started so now there is a small amount of antifreeze in the hot water tank. We don't use our water for...

    Winterizing: bypass filter?

    Hey, I'm winterizing my R-Pod 177. I ordered a Camco pump converter winterizing kit, but looking at my SHUR-flo pump, there's not much room on the vacuum side to install the winterizing kit's bypass valve UNLESS I take out the little filter that sits between the pump and the hose from the water...
