Dewinterizing the RV Water
System
Dewinterizing is simply the
process of removing all
traces of the RV antifreeze
that was used to protect
the water system.
1. Put several gallons of
water into the fresh water
tank.
2. Turn on the on-board
water pump, and open a cold
water tap.
3. Allow the water to flow
for several minutes.
4. Connect the water hose
to your city water supply
inlet. Turn on the
supply.
5. Open all taps one by one
and allow the water to flow
for several minutes.
6. Flush the toilet several
times.
7. Now open the water
heater bypass and fill the
water heater with fresh
water.
(You may want to allow a
few gallons to flow through
the water heater, then let
it drain completely before
re-installing the water
heater drain plug)
8. Run water through all
the hot water faucets.
That's it!
