could potentially damage the seals and cause water leaks. If you have questions,
consult with your independent, authorized dealer.
4. Using an air hose and adapter, blow air through the city water connection.
5. Any remaining water in the water lines will blow out in five to ten minutes.
6. Pour one cup of non-toxic RV antifreeze into all drain P-traps.
Utility Center with Antifreeze
1. Drain the water tank and water heater completely by opening all faucets and low
point drains until the tank and water heater are empty. Make sure all holding tanks
are empty.
2. Position the valves on the utility panel to the “Antifreeze/Sanitize Lines”
configuration. The low point drains located directly below the utility center must
be closed for the antifreeze to siphon through the lines.
3. Attach the intake hose to the city water connection.
I
WARNING: Do not use Ethylene Glycol (automobile antifreeze) or
methanol (windshield washer fluid) in your fresh water system. They
are harmful and can be fatal if swallowed.
4. Put the free end of the hose into a jug of Non-Toxic RV Antifreeze. You will need
more than one gallon of antifreeze.
5. Turn the demand pump switch to the “ON” position and open each faucet until the
antifreeze flows through. Do not forget to run the antifreeze through the toilet.
6. Pour at least one cup of antifreeze into each drain to protect the p-traps.
7. Before using the water system again, thoroughly sanitize and flush the whole
system. (See sanitizing instructions in the “Utilities and Systems” chapter.)
Non Basement System with Antifreeze
1. Drain the water tank and water heater completely by setting the valves as indicated
for your specific unit in the “Utilities and Systems” chapter. Make sure the tanks,
water lines and water heater are empty.
Caution: Antifreeze could potentially be harmful to the water heater. Follow all
instructions as supplied by the water heater manufacturer with your unit. If you
have questions, consult with your independent, authorized dealer and/or visit the
water heater manufacturer’s website at
2. Position the valves to the “Antifreeze/Sanitize Lines” configuration to winterize
the water lines only. If you wish to run a small amount of antifreeze into the water
tank, configure the valves as indicated to antifreeze/sanitize the lines AND the
water tank. After a small amount of antifreeze is added to the tank, reposition the
valve to only fill the water lines.
.
NOTE: Due to the water tank size, you will not want to completely fill the water
tank with antifreeze. A small amount of water in the on board tank will not damage
the tank in freezing temperatures. If any antifreeze is run into the tank, make sure
the system and tank are thoroughly sanitized prior to using the water system again.
Refer to instructions supplied in the “Utilities and Systems” chapter for sanitizing
