Winterizing your travel trailer

We go over the procedure of winterizing your water system on your travel trailer. We will be winterizing our 2021 Coachmen Apex Outfitter. All of you who have a 208bhs or a 194 Apex Nano this should be a great video for you as this should be the exact same procedure especially the 208bhs!!! If you don't have an Apex Nano still stay tuned this procedure is very similar on many many models Happy Camping!!

Thank you so so much for this video. Was looking for our water pump for literally months prior to finding this. Under the bed….wow!

I buy the compressed air dongle and just blow air through the lines. Set the compressor to 50psi and blow out all the lines including, kitchen faucet, bathroom faucet, shower, toilet and exterior shower. Be sure to empty the water heater first and then turn the valve closed (located under the bottom bunk). Then finally, open the two low points until only compressed air comes out. Empty the fresh tank as well. Then pour 5cups of non-toxic af to the sink drains, bath drains, toilet and shower drain.

if you have access to an air supply certainly is a good idea. The big thing to remember is just to have anti freeze in all of your lines and remove as much water as possible

I see that your valve coming from fresh tank to pump is closed , does it matter if the fresh tank bypass valve stays open or closed when adding antifreeze.

Thanks for the video. I'm curious if there is anything you have to do with the toilet? There is a water that runs through to rinse the bowl and fill the basin when you flush. Also do you recommend just pouring antifreeze into your black tank through the toilet? Curious if that matters or not.

Yes after I shot the video I forgot to show the toilet. Yes when you have your pump on just push the flush pedal as well to run the antifreeze through it. You want to drain your black and gray tanks once your done doing your flushing to get the water out of the tanks. I do then add some antifreeze back into the toilet to go into the black tank. Just alittle will do the trick here. Thanks for the comment because I did want to mention the toilet

what do you do with your black tank flush line for winter?

[@mikec8123]

Great video. I have a question. Shouldn't the water/antifreeze be red and not pink? To me pink says there is still water in there.

[@FerreedomOutdoors]

This antifreeze we have purchased was camco and actually is more of a pink hue. Our prior antifreeze was definitely dark red, just a change in fluid over the years.
