forces the antifreeze through all of the water lines and faucets. It also
allows the antifreeze solution to enter the drain lines and prevent the
P-traps from freezing. Check the antifreeze solution from time to time
to make sure there is an adequate supply.
9.
Close the antifreeze valve when the winterizing process is complete.
Store the in-take hose, and turn the water pump off.
10.
Open the water supply valve that flows from the pump to the tank to
help prevent freezing on that water line.
11.
To de-winterize your unit, open both of the low point drains to allow the
antifreeze solution to drain from the water system. Next, close the low
point drains and connect your unit to city water. Put water in the fresh
water tank and pump at least one gallon through the water pump in order
to remove the antifreeze from the water pump. Keep the water heater
supply valve closed and the water heater bypass valves open. The supply
valve for the fresh water tank from the pump must remain closed. As in
winterizing, open the kitchen faucet, bath faucet, inside and outside
shower, turning on both the hot and the cold, and flushing the stool until
the antifreeze solution is flushed out of the system and the water flows
clear. Once the system has been flushed, open the water heater supply
valve and close the water heater bypass valve. Open the fresh water tank
supply valve from the pump and the ice maker valve. Reinstall the water
filter. Be sure to close the fresh water tank drain valves to allow the tank
to fill.
Note:
Remember, if your unit has the exterior shower installed you must
winterize this system as well.
Head Lamps
Recreational Vehicle headlamp maintenance recommendations while your
vehicle is parked for long periods:
1.
Check headlamp regularly for condensed water drops (daily in high
humidity areas).
2.
If small drops of condensed water are noted, drive your RV with the
headlamps “ON” or just turn “ON” the headlamps. This will evaporate
the condensed water drops and will help in avoiding the accumulation of
water. Depending on the size, shape and location of the lamp on the RV,
the atmospheric conditions occurring, the amount of time required to
clear the lamp may vary from 2 to 6 hours.
