- In this video I go through my step by step process to De-Winterize the camper. The Jayco Jayflight 224 BH is similar to other Jayco models so this video should be helpful when de-winterizing a number of different models from various RV manufacturers. Getting the RV ready for the season helps build excitement for the season!
Most entertaining de-winterizing video I've seen yet.
Thanks for watching
De-winterizing is one of my favorite things to do. Great information. Last time we hooked up to city water I forgot to put the plug back in and it was pouring right out of the other side. It was a quick reminder. Enjoy your summer travels.
We got some nice summer trips planned. Thanks for watching
Great process Scott👍🏻 really made it clear what to do for flush and sanitizing. Bill and I each divide and conquer- he does the outside lines and I do the inside lines. Yay camping weather is back 😊😊
Heading out camping this weekend. Glad to be back out there. Thanks for watching.
Man! Thanks so much! As more of a tech guy, RVing is totally out of my wheelhouse but I'm loving it so far. I was going to take my Jayco to a dealer (I dragged it to Tucson from Cleveland) to de-winterize it, but I also want to learn the systems better and figured I'd take a crack at it myself. Pretty sure this video taught me most everything I'd need to do it! Mine is a tiny 145RB, but I think everything you are doing here translates to mine more or less exactly. If I remember right, only difference is that the bypass valve is underneath the sink. Thanks again!
Awesome, glad the video helped you out. RVing is a lot of fun. Thanks for watching.
Good Video Scott, I'm sure it will help someone out with dewinterizing.. I did my coach last week for the first time and what a delight that was.. Two bathroom sinks, two toilets, washer, dish washer, and aquahot.. Well at least I know how to do it... Have a good one and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Herbie, looking forward to our meet up
BBB always has a spare shot glass at the ready! Nice video. The weather is definitely getting better!
An extra shot glass always comes in handy in the RV world! Thanks for watching
Super informative 👌... thank you!
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching.
Thank you! Thank you !Thank you! Your video made so much more sense, just down to the basics keeping things simple for the new guys entering the RV camper world.
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching
We just got a SLX 174bh and winterizing/dewinterizing is something I’ve been really nervous about. This video is incredibly helpful!
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching.
Great video for my Jayco. I couldn’t get hot water into the faucets. I watch your video again and saw how you had the valves on the back of the tank. Switched them and voila, wonderful hot water!! 🚿 Thanks 😂
Glad the video helped. Thanks for watching.
Love the pillowcases!! Never know when a shot glass will come in handy lol!! Great tips and tricks to dewinterize!! 😁
Looking forward to the camping season. Thanks for watching.
bleach should sit in the lines and tank for 4 hrs. before rinsing. glad you have the same camper. learning much from you
Thanks for the tip
Nice video! His all the main points including the pillow cases! 👍
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video, this will be a huge help for me.
I'm glad it helped. Thanks for watching.
Hi Scott, beautiful camper I bet you can't wait to get out in it.
Let the camping season begin! Thanks for watching.
Great detailed video showing step by step how to dewinterize your camper. You know, Scott, if you and Marie moved down here to Florida, at least during the winter, you would not have to winterize or dewinterize your rig. Haha.
Even if I didn't move I could snowbird it and avoid winterization. Lol. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this video! We have a similar Jayco and it helped so much. I do wonder about sanitizing the hot water take too though? I guess the heat is what will do that on it's own?
I dont like putting chemicals in the hot water heater so I close it off. Thanks for watching.
Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
I do the one tank off on the propane too. I have also had someone else light my stove with the cover down and bust it. That was 2 years ago and the video of replacing it has about 12k views so apparently it happens a lot… lol
You never know what will happen when RVing. Thanks for watching.
When do you un-bypass the tank? Before all that? How do I take care of the remaining anti-freeze in the line to the bottle? And why did you wait to mention *not* putting the vinegar water through the water heater tank until the end?
After I sanitize the tanks I then reset the valves to allow water to flow through the water heater. If you pul the hose out of the antifreeze bottle with the pump still running it should injest the fluid and clear the line. I then put a plastic bag on the winterization hose. I forgot to mention it. Thanks for watching.
Hey it’s me! I still camp at ferry boat, Are you coming back again?
I won't be there this year, maybe in 2023. Thanks for watching.
@@BikesBoatsBivouacs I don’t know… we might be going somewhere different, the new owner wants us to be kicked out so..
We are on the verge of buying this exact model as first time trailer camping. Do you have or could do a winterizing and newbie how to set up at campground? We know nothing about RVing. Love your videos and thank you! From your videos looks like you are near mid Atlantic like we are.
Hi Dawn, I have a video on setting up my rig when I bought the first RV. It is the video of the Lancaster KOA. I set up my KZ 180 which will be set up just like my Jayco 224. I'll do a winterization video prior to next winter. When my rig is under warranty I have the dealer winterize it, once the warranty expires and do the winterization myself so look for that video in September. Thanks for watching and enjoy your rig. I am near Reading PA.
We Way-Down-South-ers feel compelled to ask - what is this "winterizing" stuff? This concept is unfamiliar to us... 🤣🌴☀
Someday...post working...I won't have to winterize. Thanks for watching.
Should you sanitize the outside kitchen sink and outside shower as well as check the hot water through those two locations as well?
yes, I did, but my camera wasn't running when I checked it. Thanks for watching.
@@BikesBoatsBivouacs thanks for your quick response. Your videos on this unit are helping me decide. You earned a subscriber.
First timer question here... How do you introduce the bleach and vinegar into the freshwater system? Ours is just a screw-in with a hose ('22 jayco eagle 29.5 BHDS) so I'm unsure how we would be able to pressurize the bleach and vinegar to get it into the freshwater system
Hello, if you don't have a fresh water tank, then you could use the hose that puts the anti freeze in the system. Sometimes the fresh water tank fill is on the opposite side. When I looked at your unit specs it indicates there is a fresh water tank with an 87 gallon capacity. Thanks for watching.
@@BikesBoatsBivouacs yes thank you, I didn't explain myself very well. Where are you screw the freshwater hose into fill the freshwater tank, there is a screen over that opening that bulges out, so I will just need to figure out how to sort of shoot the vinegar past that screen as I can't tip any sort of shot glass or cup into the hole opening. Appreciate the response!
@@abbyschock2342 I would get a squirt bottle to shoot the mixture into the tank.
Did you use the pump or the city water when filling the hot water tank?
City water. Thanks for watching
Where is the water pump located at?
The water pump is located under the kitchen sink below the flexible ductwork. Thanks for watching.
My water smelled like rotten egg
I guess it depends on the type of vinegar you use. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Scott we were just about to de-winterize the trailer today, the info is going to come in handy.🚲🛶🏕
Looking forward to the new season. Excited to see where you will be camping. Thanks for watching.
