OBJECTIVE SUMMARY: Prepare the travel trailer for winterization when it will not be in
use to protect from freezing.
TOOLS/ITEMS REQUIRED:
• 1 and 1/16th socket, wrench, and extension (for Suburban Water Heaters)
• 3 gallon or larger bucket for draining water heater (if indoors)
• 3 gallons of non-toxic, concentrated RV antifreeze
• One 24-inch hose with male threaded end
• Antifreeze Hand Pump Kit
WINTERIZATION PROTOCOL:
Before we begin, please ensure your Black, Grey, and Freshwater tanks are empty.
Also, we do not recommend using blown air to winterize your Oliver Travel Trailer.
Doing so may damage your plumbing system.
1. The first step in the winterization process is to turn off the gas on all propane gas
tanks connected to your travel trailer.
2. Next, turn off your water heater at the power switch. If your travel trailer is equipped
with a Truma tankless water heater, you will also have to turn off the switch outside
on the water heater itself. Next, turn off the water pump and then turn on the hot
and cold water at any faucet to depressurize the water system. Once water ceases to
flow from the faucet, turn the faucet handles to the off position.
