How we winterize our water system

[RVcircus]

Now that we're into November here in Pennsylvania it's time to do the dreaded dead. It's time to winterize our travel trailer. It's a sad day in the RVcircus household because it means less camping and less camping just plain stinks.

Every year I see a million questions asking how to winterize an RV. I also see just as many answers as to how it's done. This year we're adding our own opinion to the pile.

What you'll need:
1 1/16" socket (if you have a Suburban water heater)
RV Waterline antifreeze (I buy 3 gallons and avoid anything with alcohol)
Blowout plug
Air compressor
Winterizing kit (optional, but well worth the cost to install)

That being said, checkout the below video to see how we do it.

Every time we go south I regret driving home to PA! We say we like the change of seasons, leaves changing colors, etc...but the cold and snow ruins it all for me. For the next 5 months we'll be dreaming of warmer weather.
