run into the black tank to protect the valve. Pour the last pint of
antifreeze into the toilet after you have released the flush button.
Micropher toilets may be stopped in the middle of the flush
cycle. Locate the on/off switch below the tank lid. Initiate the
flush cycle then turn the switch off in the middle of the flush
cycle. Use a soft cloth to wipe out the sinks and shower after you
pour in the antifreeze to protect the surfaces from stains.
10. Leave the low-point drains open until you are ready to use your
motorhome again.
WARNING: When draining the low point hot water drain lines
and the water heater, be sure the water is cool. Hot water from
the lines can burn you.
Ten gallons of FDA approved approved RV antifreeze will be required to
winterize the motorhome.
1. Remove the water filter elements from the filters and reassemble
the filters without the elements (see “Water Filter”).
2. Open all of the low point drains (next to the aqua-hot) and the
drain valves to drain: the fresh water tank, water heater tank,
holding tanks and fresh water lines.
3. Close all faucets, drain valves and low point drains.
4. Pump antifreeze into fresh water tank using independently oper-
ated water pump connected to WATER TANK - FRESH WATER
FILL hook-up.
5. Turn ON the system water pump and operate each faucet individ-
ually until a small amount of antifreeze is present.
6. Close off the faucets.
7. Open the shower faucets and toilet valves to allow a small
amount of antifreeze to run into the holding tanks.
8. Use a soft cloth to wipe out the sinks and shower to protect sur-
faces from antifreeze stains.
9. Exterior faucet should be opened and closed using the same pro-
cedures as the interior faucets.
10. If the motorhome is equipped with an ice maker, remove the 3/4
inch fitting and flush antifreeze through the water line.
11. Disconnect the power supply line affecting water pump opera-
tion.
For de-winterization, drain off the fresh tank and fill the fresh tank with
water. Reconnect the power supply line for the water pump. Operate all faucets,
one at a time, until clear water is present.
