With this being our first RV, this will be our first time winterizing.
I have a few questions about winterizing the plumbing.
I have read about bypassing the water heater in order to prevent wasting 6 gallons of antifreeze.
However, in reading through the water heater owner manual, there is no mention of a bypass valve.
I want to better understand wintering the plumbing.
My external (and only one I can find) access:
Wintering Section from owner manual:
If there is no bypass valve, am I just going to have to waste the 6 gallons of antifreeze that my water heater holds?
After researching a bit, the bypass kit doesn’t appear to be expensive. How difficult is it to install?
Do you fill the plumbing with antifreeze or is it just coating the plumbing?
