Section 8: Plumbing System
When you are finished adding RV antifreeze:
12. Turn only the BLUE, GREEN, and WHITE valve handles so they are at a 45° angle for
10 seconds (Fig 3) . The pump should still be ON.
13. Turn the water pump OFF with the switch on the utility center panel.
14. Return the BLUE, GREEN & WHITE valve handles to the WINTERIZE positions.
15. Remove hose and container from the City Water Fill inlet. Put the cap back on the City
Water Fill inlet. Leave the valves in WINTERIZE position.
16. Pour 1 cup of RV antifreeze into any/all drain P traps (sinks and bathtub).
17. Wipe any RV antifreeze out of the sinks, shower (or tub), toilet, washing machine tub,
& dishwasher tub with a soft, dry cloth.
Contact your dealer if you require further assistance.
Winterizing the Macerator System (if so equipped)
1. Ensure all tanks are empty.
2. Pour RV antifreeze into the toilet and down into the black
water tank.
3. Turn the macerator pump ON.
4. Run the pump until antifreeze begins to discharge from
the dump connector attached to the flex hose.
5. Turn the macerator pump OFF.
6. Drain the flex hose by holding it at a sloped angle to drain
excess water and return the hose to the storage location.
7. As an added safety measure, open the Macerator Bypass
valve and let it drain. Push the valve IN to bypass the macerator. The bypass valve may
be either at the utility center or under the RV.
De-winterize the macerator system: Emptying the black tanks in the spring will flush
antifreeze out of the macerator system.
Water can accumulate in the flexible hose and dump connector of the macera -
tor system. When winterizing the RV, antifreeze must be added to the macera-
tor system.
NOTE: Use a container (bucket) for
capturing system fluid.
NOTE: The bypass valve for the macerator is typically pointing back
underneath the coach. Handle position is normally pulled OUT (bypass
closed). The valve position is by design, so it can’t be activated accidentally
when system is operating normally.
