I live the crocs Izzy.

Refrigerator (ice maker, filter, drinking water port)and washing machine?

I just take mine to Tucson.

Excellent. :-)))). :-)))))

It's $11 and change in my area. Twin Falls Idaho

I am interested in how you keep bacteria out of the lines using an air compressor with no filters.

I found your video thanks for informing I was curious how it would work not sure if I’d have to do that or not living in the valley of California but possibly because it can get pretty cold

How do you winterize your sanivite kitchen transfer pump?

Excellent video! Thank you!

I keep watching your video every time I winterize I basically blow up my lines and use the RV antifreeze and all the P traps and toilet thank you again for all your useful DYII videos for RV s

What about batteries????

Just moved to Colorado from Texas. Yes my first time.😮

You guys are the best thanks

Thank you for reminding people to use the correct RV Antifreeze.

We were just planning on doing this so it was great timing for us.

No reason to use the air pressure method. The pump will push out the water with the pink stuff.

Thank you for showing how it is done to winterize your Rv this so good to know because you wouldn’t want to your Rv to smell or have a bad odor. It looks easy to do. This video helps to know how to do and do it right. Thank you so much Izzy and MJ. Have a great evening and see you and see you soon!

Thank you Izzy and MJ we're picking up our first travel trailer tomorrow and you mentioned the product called 303 can you tell me a little more about that and can I find it at a camp store or RV store??

Good video. I do the same thing, blow out with air first and then put in the antifreeze. One thing you should mention, make sure your compressor is an oil-less compressor. You don't want to coat your lines with oil residue.

Thank you for the video. I have our first RV and will be my first winterization. I am learning.

I do the same as Geof. Run air through every water outlet, RV antifreeze in P traps and some in black and gray tank so the dump valves do not freeze. Also pull the anode rod to drain hot water heater and inspect the rod. I have never felt comfortable putting anything in the water that we drink or cook with. I do my 40’ coach using less than a gallon. Next season fill with water and go have fun. Thanks for the tip on black tank enzyme.

We have used Unique in our black tank for years and love it. Never any smells

Awesome video, I just did mine last week as well.

Well Izzy I did exactly what you said and I winterize my Newmar 2022 3124 we took her home couple days ago and we have it out cleaning everything and examining everything and then I did your winterizing thank you

Regarding the seal in the toilet. I’ve always used Vaseline on the end of my finger and lubricate that rubber seal and it seems to have worked very well for me and my Monaco. Then I always make sure that there is a water barrier floating above that seal during the time to coach is down for the winter. Thomyt

Great info. Wouldn’t have thought of hooking up the compressor to pressurize the system.

We're so glad you love our products! Happy Camping!

Yes, first time to ❄️ winterize here and I've been hitting YT hard for info 🤓. Your presentation was clear and concise. Also, your comment on keeping things pliable (toilet gasket for instance) was a helpful insight👏

I will be winterizing myself! I’ve never done it before. I will probably watch your video five more times before I attempt to winterize! Wish me luck!

👍👍 Thanks

Great info. We have to do ours this weekend. Thanks !!

Good instructional vlog. I would have liked to see you spray the seal in the commode.

Very helpful video! Ya’ll have a great show as always. Ya’ll need to move south where winterizing is not a big deal! Take care guys

Great how to do video! Easy way. I do winterize our Rv. Love watching your videos!

First time winterizing. These videos are like University courses for RV owners. Thank you for making these videos!

Thank you both for sharing, what is a very common RV related chore. I think that you covered everything well, with the exception of winterizing the toilet. You skimmed over the use if the 303 protectant, which I, and probably many others, am unfamiliar with. It would have been helpful to have you show us how you do that task. Thanks again MJ & Izzy

We haven’t made the mistakes, but our Son did, he got busy & forgot to winterize last year, we’re in Texas, you know what we got. Fortunately he knows how to fix things & he was only out price for parts on his fifth wheel. 👍👍👍👍keep’m coming

I have always blown out my rv systems, I have never used anti-freeze on top ot the air. May I as why use anti-freeze on top of blowing out the rv? Double protection? What about the taste next year? Anyway nice video.

Good video. I have to winterize without blowing out because if a unit has a Aquahot you can NOT blow out the lines. It will damage the Aquahot. Also, I use a 5 gallon portable water container and fill it with RV antifreeze so I can winterize without running out to replace the one gallon jugs. Also, if the fridge has a ice maker you need to drain it as the manual explains.

This will be the first time I winterize my Thor 22HE but once I get my newmar 2702 Baystar sport I’ll be most definitely doing all your tips thank you very much and thank you for the heads up that this video is coming out today

Great information thank you for sharing this be safe happy healthy in all you do and want take care of yourself

When your winterizing, what about the gray tank? Do you just drain it. Add any enzyme treatment or extra antifreeze? Thanks, great video

Its Ethanol don't use the Walmart brand that is shown here in your water lines - buy ethanol free antifreeze Starbrite brand ect.

Good video. We had a fifth wheel and bought an all-electric motorhome so we just keep it plugged in and the heat on. It is a little expensive, but we camp in the wintertime and it is a lot of trouble to winterize and then wash it out, all to do it again in a month.

Izzy i have ?, your hose you use for the air compressor,i got the-part for the motorhome but what do you use for the compressor to the Rv ( what came with the Husky small diameter red hose) or something else ? thx

The Unique family of products is AMAZING. I have never seen solid debris come from either the grey or black tanks since starting to use the stuff since watching the demonstration video in a Todd's Tech Tip Tuesday.

i do all you said but after winterizing ….I shut off pump and open valves to prevent any moisture from freezing over winter…..

What are your thoughts on using vasoline on the toilet gasket

You all did it again! A great how to video! You all have away of putting it into a easy to follow format. Here is wishing you all the very best in all that you do.

Wow, you do realize that by connecting your air line to your black water tank and then moving to fresh water, you have crossed contaminated your fresh water. Something you never want to do. If you want to put air pressure into the black tank, you should have a separate adapter and hose for the freshwater system (just like you hopefully do with the water hoses). Personally, I wouldn’t pressurize the black water tank, just not that much benefit (if any benefit).

I run a little heat in the cabin and in the wet bay. I like to be ready to go. We always have some nice days in Virginia during winter. Costs a little bit for the electricity but it works. You don't have to keep it at 65 degrees. 45 is good. I've done this since we bought this "coach" and it has worked well. I do shut off the feed to the water heater and drain it. Have a great fall/winter y'all.

I use air only. This year I’m going to the Lippert floe, I’ll have to test it before I can see how it’s working though. The main plus is that you are putting air in before the pump, because that’s the weak point and I did have some micro cracks in my pre filter after 2 years. I also un-winterize every other weekend though.

Like the dual process of air and antifreeze. Would be curious how to specically do the washer machine. I’d rather watch a video than break out the owners manual! Great video and timely. It was 36° this AM in Northern Indiana.

Thanks for a very informative vid! While I have winterized my older truck camper for years, my new motorhome has newer features, like the tank flush, that escaped my notice!! The RV manual is a joke - so I rely on you and other informed educated KZfaqRS to bring the rest of us up to speed. Be well.

haha....just rewatching this (watched last year)...you nailed it....almost $8.00 a gallon now....not sure how many gallons my system will require but I will start with 2.

For us we live in SE Michigan, it's gets really cold here, we know cold weather :). The only area I will use air on is the black tank flush, the rest of the system I will pump RV antifreeze throughout the system, excluding the water heater and freshwater tank of course. I will also us a container to catch as much freshwater from each faucet as possible from going down to the gray tank. We have 2 macerator toilets I will pore RV antifreeze into them then do 3 dry flushes, no need to have any liquid/antifreeze in the macerator toilets. Also I will put at least 1.5 gallons of RV antifreeze, into the black and gray holding tanks, just to make sure the long run to the dump valves are protected.

Using air pressure and anti-freeze is redundant, so too bad they didn't give an explanation as to why they use both methods when either method will do the job.

Hi Izzy and MJ. Great video. I know that the Max water pressure is 60 PSI. And you set your compressor to 48PSI. My owners manual stated not to use more than 30 PSI. I am now wondering why the difference. The only thing if I may suggest is when you winterize the outside shower and low point drains, is to capture it in a bucket and dump it in the toilet. Just a thought.

Great video guys, I guess I am lazy I take mine to my dealership and let them do it. If something breaks it’s on them. I will be getting some of the black tank pods. Thanks for the information !

This video is a keeper, Izzy and MJ, great advice, you could both teach courses is operating and maintaining RV's, I've learned a lot watching your videos! Living full time in Florida it's not an issue, but still good to know the process.

I think this is a great video. One must be careful though to ensure that all of the procedures for your RV - and I mean ALL - have been completed. That is why, for your $400,000 Boondocking Beauty, you might consider an appointment with your RV service place and shift the liability for a mistake (read very $costly) to them.

What kind of 303 spray do you use? Thanks

blowing out the lines is a huge risk , companys letting go quality recently i would not trust thost lines

Shouldn’t you have the valves open when blowing tank rinse?

What would you suggest for someone that loves RV'ing in Winter Snows other than heavy Insulation??

You threw me for a loop when you said “sponsored by…” and it wasn’t followed by Liquid Spring. Lmao! I live in south Florida so I don’t have to winterize but it’s nice to know. 😉 Big kisses and lots of pets to the dogs🐾🐾❤️😘

Yours is the first RV video to suggest nothing in the toilet bowl. I do use plumbers grease to protect the seal but most videos say to leave fluid in the bowl…was this your idea or was it suggested by your manufacturer? Just curios I had not heard about leaving the bowl dry.

what were the mistakes? I thought this would focus on mistakes and not how to winterize.

Do you have an “unwinterise” video ? Last year it took a lot to wash out the antifreeze smell. I bet I left some in the low points and such. Thanks.

I'm on the fence of which treatment to get should I get the plain or the tangerine ones? Thanks

If I storage the rv in heated building do l still need to winterize?

Typical common mistake is not pressing the foot pedal on the toilet till it runs pink. Small diameter hose freezes quick, and the valve needs replacing. We winterize ourselves, and were provided a cost breakdown of the most common items that freeze and are replaced often by our dealer.

Thanks Izzy, looks pretty straight forward. Hopefully won't have to do that down here in Houston. Great info nonetheless. Will check out the Unique products. Keep up the good work. How do I add my wife Kelli to the Insider group with me? Thanks

Watch you don't over pressure your pipes!

I miss your sunglasses….ok, back to the video…

No self-respecting Tiffin owner would EVER wear fur-lined Crocs! Hahaha!!!
