I have 2006, 38.5 Fleetwood 5th wheel and live in SW Washington. All i have done is drain the heater tank, remove the under sink filter, open the fresh water tank valve and leave it open. I open the low water drain lines and leave the hot and cold faucets inside open. I have never blown any remaining water out or flushed with anti freeze and never had a problem. I think i will find videos on blowing air thru the system to be safe. Accessing my pump is not easy so pumping antifreeze thru the system is my last choice. We get a few days each winter below freezing but Ive never had a problem.
Lucky that you get mild winters! I've never blown air through but I've heard you have to be careful you don't put too much pressure through and damage some of the brittle plastic connections/joints.
@@mastersergeant8672 it came installed that way, although we've had a lot of issues with drainage. I have some other videos on my channel that talk about that. It works really well in terms of cooling the rig but keeping the condensation from dripping inside has been...problematic.
Great tips!
Good refresher.

Did you rig that AC unit in there yourself or did the camper come with that?
