CARE AND MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT
!
On coaches equipped with Aqua View Showermi$er
Fresh Water Reclamation System, cycle the valve
to the bypass position to purge the water out of the
line back to the fresh water tank while pressurized
air supply is connected. Then place the valve back to
normal flow mode to the shower head, and then purge
the shower. Do not leave the valve in bypass mode
when running antifreeze in the line because it will
allow antifreeze into the fresh tank.
12. After blowing the water out of the system with
pressurized air, disconnect the hose, and pour
approximately one cup of antifreeze into the hose.
Hook the hose back up to the pressurized air, and
blow the antifreeze through the hose and hose reel to
protect it.
13. Close the low point drains. This must be done prior
to pumping antifreeze through the lines, or the
antifreeze will be pumped onto the ground.
14. Remove the whole house filter canister, and dump any
remaining water, and reinstall.
15. Locate the winterizing valves marked “A” & “B”
located in the water compartment.
16. Close valve “A” by rotating the valve clockwise. Open
valve “B” by rotating the valve counter clockwise.
17. Remove the plug at the end of the clear winterizing
hose.
18. Insert the hose into a jug or bucket of antifreeze.
19. Replace the empty jugs, or refill the bucket as needed
to complete the entire process.
20. Turn on the water pump by activating water pump
switch. Red antifreeze will start flowing through the
clear hose into the water lines.
21. Run cold water from the kitchen faucet until the red
potable antifreeze is detected. Run hot water from the
kitchen faucet until the antifreeze is detected.
22. Proceed to the next faucet, and repeat process for
each faucet, including the lavatory, shower sprayers,
and outside shower faucet. If equipped, repeat the
process for the instant hot water, drinking water
dispensers, and hot water spigot with low point drain
(next to the generator).
23. Flush each toilet until the red antifreeze is detected. If
the toilet is equipped with a sprayer, activate and flush
it until the antifreeze flows from the sprayer.
IMPORTANT
!
Make sure you run enough antifreeze through each
faucet to fill each P-trap.
IMPORTANT
!
For coaches equipped with a sink or shower
connected to a Saniflo Sanivite lift pump, the lift pump
must be completely emptied, or enough RV antifreeze
must be poured down the drains to allow the lift pump
to cycle until the antifreeze concentration is sufficient
for freeze protection. Pour at least one liter of
antifreeze down the drain connected to the lift pump.
Make sure the pump cycles at least once, then pour
another liter down the drain. Wait for the lift pump to
cycle again; then the remaining liquid in the lift pump
should have an adequate antifreeze concentration at
this point.
The red antifreeze may not appear instantly, as
most refrigerators have a reserve for cold water.
However, if you did not remove the water filter in the
refrigerator in Step 5, the fluid will run clear for a long
time.
NOTICE
!
24. Run the dishwasher through a cycle to winterize the
water inlet plumbing, as well as the pump and drain
line.
25. If the coach is equipped, turn on the washing
machine. Select a wash cycle setting that uses warm
water to activate both the hot and cold inlet valves.
Allow the washing machine to fill for approximately
two minutes. Press the “cancel” and “drain” selection
to begin draining the machine. This will winterize the
pump and drain, as well as the washing machine’s
P-trap.
26. Depress the refrigerator’s external water dispenser
while holding a container to catch the fluid. Continue
to let the fluid flow until the red antifreeze is detected.
27. Make sure the ice maker is turned on. Once it reaches
the proper temperature, it will attempt to make ice
cubes, which will become pink in color. This may take
several hours. Once they become pink, turn off the ice
maker and the refrigerator. Empty the ice cube tray,
and clean out the ice maker and freezer area.
28. Turn off the water pump. Close the winterizing valve
“B”, and open valve “A”.
29. Insert the plug into the clear hose, and stow the
winterizing hose.
30. If the coach is equipped, winterize the macerator by
turning it on and emptying the black and gray holding
tanks, allowing the macerator and macerator hose
to fill with antifreeze. If there is no macerator in the
coach, use the sewer hose to drain the black tank,
followed by the gray tank.
