Easiest Winterizing Yet!

Recommended Posts

Actually, the "Easiest" would be to simply drive south......But I won't be doing that until January...

 

This past summer I installed an onboard compressor with a storage tank in the Toy Hauler....Great for airing up water toys, tires, cleaning of fishing equipment and dirt bikes....
You can read all about the install here:

But this year it was used to blow out the airlines in preparation for winter.
I didn't have to search around for the pancake compressor or run a 100' airline from the shop.
Turned on compressor...Filled air tank....set pressure at the regulator / water separator to 40psi....installed the blow out connection to the city water line....bypassed water heater..turned faucets on one by one and low drain opened....Little bit of AF in all the drains..DONE!

All that was left was to drain HW tank and suck a little bit of AF into the pump.
Didn't take more than 20 minutes!

That is the way my manual said to winterize my trailer too with the exception of run the water pump dry for 30 seconds to clear the water out of it. That has worked great for the last 10 years, but this year I am heading south to winterize........

I like your plan sounds like a lot more fun
