How to Winterize - A Checklist or Video

[razmataz]

Ok so I have never winterized a TT. Well I need to this year! I have a 2014 Zinger 32QB. Is there a video I can watch or a document checklist that can get me through it? Yes, I admit I am a rookie but need help to do it right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Thank you to everyone who commented on winterization or who provided links. All of them were invaluable as we were able to get it done today. Yeah. It was not as bad as the dealer made it sound, I might add.

Happy Halloween

Just winterized ours - almost forgot to flush the outside shower - it is rarely used.

I blow the water lines out with air first and then put RV antifreeze in them in them.

Also did the blow out first. In one video, I was shocked to hear that one brand has no way to do a by-pass or to install one. You have to add 11 gallons of RV antifreeze to the fresh water tank and suck it up. Wow, what a waste of $$$.

Hope everyone else has good success.

I open the outside shower when I drain the water heater as a reminder to winterize it. I have actually have forgotten it once in the past. I'll bet I am not the only one who has.
I also use air and pink living in New England.

Did mine today. My first time. Blew out the lines after draining all bottom lines. Had to shut off where water goes into water heater as well as bypass? Five and half gallons. Water heater got a gallon before I figured the valves out. Really wasn't that hard.
