    4:44 "If it's gonna be nasty, I just might head down south." I like the sound of that. Hopefully this time next year my wife and I will both be retired, and the ability to pack up and head south on a whim without a lot of effort to dewinterize the camper would be nice. Good video.

      We have the same plan. My tolerance for cold, windy, icy weather has substantially diminished. I'll see you down there in the near future. Thanks for watching.

    That’s the way I normally do it. this year we opted for the pink stuff. Good video

      I might want to escape to the south if the weather looks to nasty so I tried this method. Thanks for watching.

    This is how we winterize and haven't had any issues. We actually winterize and re-winterize several times throughout the winter because we travel whenever we can. Happy holidays!

    50 years owning an RV. Only time it froze was when I used this method. One and only one time. Good luck.

      If it freezes, I'll do a video on it. Thanks for watching.

      @BikesBoatsBivouacs I'd rather you not find out. Just the faucet in the kitchen was ?$300. If there's air in the lines there's room for condensation. And that will freeze. It didn't take much.

      @lawrenceconstantine Absolutely not. Empty = Room for condensation. = water in pipe = Frozen. Lime full of RV anti freeze. No condensation, no freeze.

    We camp enough in cold weather that I think I would put shut off on the outdoor kitchen and shower/spray port since I probably wouldn't be using them when its so cold. That would save a little time blowing out the lines!

      I agree that would work for cold winter camping. My idea of winter camping is driving south until I can wear a T shirt and shorts. PS. I now ride a Honda Grom. Thanks for watching.

    I USE 98.4 PSI AND SHE REALLY BLOWS THE WATER OUT LIKE THE DICKENS

      As long as you always have a valve open so the pressure doesn't build up. Thanks for watching.

    I did not hear you mention how much psi to use in the compressor. It should be no more than 40 psi. Thats what the system is designed yo handle. Any more than that can blow a line or fitting.

      Good info. I always have a line open so pressure can't build in the system. Thanks for watching.
