The preferred method to winterize your recreation vehicle is by using RV antifreeze in the
plumbing system. It may be easier to winterize the RV with another person to assist you.
IMPORTANT: FOR TRUMA AQUAGO WATER HEATER:
DO NOT BLOW OUT THE PLUMBING SYSTEM WITH
AIR PRESSURE Air pressure may cause damage to the water
heater. Refer to the
Truma AquaGo Water Heater s
ection for
instructions on draining, winterizing and decalcifying this
water heater.
Winterize with Antifreeze Method
Requires non-toxic RV antifreeze in the water lines and does not require any special tools.
Use
ONLY RV ANTIFREEZE
in your fresh water system for freeze protection. No other
product or commodity should be used. Antifreeze should
never
enter the water heater, RV
water filter, refrigerator, refrigerator water filter, or fresh water tank.
1.
Turn water heater power OFF (both electric & LP
gas switches inside the RV for storage type water
heater) Single switch inside the RV for Truma
AquaGo tankless.
The water heater should never
be drained when HOT or under pressure.
2.
Level the RV and drain the fresh water plumbing
system. Refer to
Draining the Fresh Water System.
3.
Water heater should be empty after draining the
plumbing system. Refer to Truma AquaGo Water
Heater section for draining instructions if your
motor home is equipped with the Truma AquaGo
tankless water heater.
4.
If your motor home has a standard storage type water heater you must remove the drain
plug to drain the water heater. (See photo for drain plug location)
5.
Replace the water filter cartridge with the plastic bypass hose.
Automotive antifreeze (ethylene glycol) and windshield washer antifreeze
(methanol) are poisonous. Never use these products in your fresh water
system. These products are harmful and may be fatal if swallowed.
If the recreation vehicle is going to be stored in a non-temperature controlled
environment with a risk of temperatures reaching 32°F (0°C) or lower, the air
pressure method is not adequate, winterizing with RV antifreeze
must
be used
in the plumbing system. Repairs due to freezing are not covered under the
terms of the
Towable Limited Warranty
