To use air pressure to winterize your motorhome, you will need to have
access to an air compressor and adapter to connect the air line to your water
system. Adapters can be found at any RV supply store. You should not exceed
40 pounds psi when hooked to the water lines. Higher pressures will damage
the lines.
To Use Air Pressure:
1. Remove the water filter elements from the filters and reassemble the
filters without the elements.
2. Drain the fresh water tank by opening the valve located in the outside
water control service compartment of the motorhome.
3. Open the water heater and low-point drains. Turn the knobs to open the
drains. Opening the low point drains clears the water out of the hot and
cold water lines. Leave the low-point valves open until you are ready to
use your motorhome again.
4. Let all the water drain. Turn the pump on and allow it to run so that all
the water is cleared out of the pump and lines, then turn the pump off.
5. After you have drained the water lines, hook an air hose to the city water
connection (located on the water control panel in the outside service
compartment). Blow out the water lines until no more water can be seen
coming out of the drain lines. Do not exceed 40 psi in the water lines
and faucets.
6. Open all faucets (including the outside spigot) one at a time, while the air
is on, to clear the water from the faucet supply lines. Also, do not forget
to drain your shower.
7. While the air is on, hold the spray nozzle (located right next to the toilet)
open until the water has quit running. Hold the toilet flush pedal or handle
down until the water has stopped running.
8. Unhook the air hose and close the city water connection.
9. You will need 1 gallon of RV antifreeze to protect various water lines in
your motorhome. Pour 1 pint into both the kitchen and bath shower
drains. Pour 2 pints into the bath sink drain, with some of the antifreeze
going into gray tank to protect the drain valve. While holding down flush
pedal, pour another 3-1/2 pints into the toilet, letting antifreeze run into
the black tank to protect the valve. While holding down flush pedal, pour
another 3-1/2 pints into the toilet, letting antifreeze run into the black
tank to protect the valve. While holding down flush pedal, pour another
3-1/2 pints into the toilet, letting antifreeze run into the black tank to
protect the valve located there. Pour the last pint of antifreeze into the
toilet after you have released the flush pedal. Use a soft cloth to wipe out
the sinks and shower after you pour in the antifreeze to protect the sur
faces from stains.
10. If you do not chose to fill the water lines with nontoxic (potable)
winterizing antifreeze, leave the low-point drains open until you are
ready to use your motorhome again.
