HOWTO: Water System Winterizing
115
© 2015 by Roadtrek, Inc.
Before using your waste water system in subfreezing temperatures, dump your system, put at least a half gallon of RV
antifreeze in either the gray or black water tanks, open the gray or black valve, and run the wastewater pump until RV
antifreeze comes out the discharge hose. This protects the wastewater pump from freeze damage. Every time you run
wastewater without RV antifreeze through your discharge pump, repeat this procedure.
General guidelines for when to winterize
If your Roadtrek is going to remain heated to comfortable temperatures, and the temperatures during the day are
well above freezing (above 40 deg. F or above 4 deg. C) and the forecast is for temperatures just below freezing for a
few hours at night with calm winds, then you don`t need to winterize. The heat in your Roadtrek is enough to keep the
tanks and lines from freezing.
If the forecast is for extended cold periods, with daytime temperatures at or below freezing, if you`re not heating
your Roadtrek, or if you expect sustained winds and the roads and ground is already frozen, you need to winterize.
As always, you are final judge and you need to do what is comfortable and makes you feel good. If you are not
comfortable with leaving water in your lines when it gets cold, and you will sleep better, go ahead and winterize.
