antifreeze

I hang out in a couple FB Mini Lite groups and thought I'd join the FR forum and post a few items. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qyWt7-oOhPp1hAhq-iS4HhEx2GYu3uiHr59igtISlLk/edit?usp=sharing I'm always open to suggestions to improve it. Adam

Damn winter. Gotta get the antifreeze into my 2021 Mini Lite 2104S trailer. There is a water connection marked "antifreeze" on the outside panel next to the fresh water hose hookup. It says to close certain valves. Anyone walk me through it? I've winterized other RVs and know about the...

Here’s a new video by RVProject on how effective blowing out the water lines is vs pumping in RV antifreeze.

Hello, I am going to cut out the rear heaters and use an elbow to loop the coolant hose back into itself. Do I have to use a specific material of the elbow (cooper, galvanized)? I am not sure if it can be corrosive over the long term. Thanks

I have an antifreeze hose inlet to the pump for winterizing. It is in my basement. I added 3ft of hose to it and now I can pump fresh water in if the fresh tank runs dry. Would have been handy the last tie we camped and ran out of fresh water. I have a honey wagon to haul off grey water, so...

I know RV antifreeze is cheap but last spring when I dewinterized my TT I drained the antifreeze from my fresh tank back into the bottles the antifreeze came in. I got back about 4 1/2 of the 6 gallons I started with SO, does anybody see any problems with reusing last years antifreeze again?

This will be the first winter that I have to fully winterize a travel trailer. I have watched the youtube videos and have a good grasp on the basiscs. Im looking for an helpful recomendations or tips on closing up specifically a hybrid. We have a 2008 23B and this TT was very well cared for and...

Took the trailer out this weekend and had my son help me get it it all hooked when we arrived at the park. Went to turn on the water inside and had nothing so walked around to inlet and noticed he had hook up the fresh water hose to the antifreeze inlet and turned the water on. Just wondering is...

I winterized my Coachmen Freedom Express last October (2019) with -75 degree Splash antifreeze. I won't be using the RV at all this year. Will the antifreeze that is in the lines currently be okay or should I re winterize with new antifreeze. I live in Michigan so the winters get below freezing

Hey, quick question (hopefully) for anybody that may have been through this already. What kind of coolant / antifreeze goes in a Blue Bird All American RE with a CAT 3126? Peak has Fleet Charge which is SCA precharged and Peak Final Charge which says works in ALL HD systems including SCR...

I have changed the oil and oil filters on my 8.2L Fuel Pincher and need to do the same with the coolant. However, I am having a little trouble finding information considering the age of the engine. As far as coolants, is there a specific one that people recommend? I am currently leaning...

Hello all, :trink39: Staying home for now due to Covid. Just wondering? Is there any problem leaving antifreeze in my tanks for an extended period or should I drain and refill next winter? Thanks, :confused:

Is there a hose to the pump to winterize the trailer with antifreeze? I didn't see anything around the pump so thought id ask.

When driving my 2010 Charleston there is a distinct antifreeze odor coming out of the cab heater. The radiator is low on coolant about every 3000 miles in the amount of 1.5 gallons. Put it in shop two years ago, but no leak was discovered. Odor most noted when up to speed on the road on a cool...

Hi Everyone, 2 weeks ago, during the last stop of our spring north migration, I stopped over to do winterization. I followed my usual routine which involves closing the intake tap of the water heater, draining all the water, cold and hot, and pumping anti-freeze in the plumbing. This time...

I have a 2019 Isata 3 24FW. I'm about to winterize and the owner's manual recommends to add enough antifreeze to be above the minimum fill in the fresh water tank (if I use that method). How do I know what that amount is? How many"gallons" of antifreeze?

Hey, first time winterizing my forest river Rockwood 232esp. Which valve on the water pump do I disconnect to connect a tube for the antifreeze?

Can I use buckets of clean water & use the antifreeze pump to clear antifreeze from lines? Thinking that this will avoid need to fill fresh water tank. Have a couple of 5 gal buckets to fill with clean water and use same procedure as winterizing it. Thanks for input

I have a 2000 Roadtrek and have put 3/4 C. antifreeze in the water port behind the seat per the manual. I can not get the pink stuff to circulate and come out the water faucet. Should I add more anitfreeze?? Suggestions? I drained the lines as the manual directed. Thanks!

I have a 32ss Mirada and I'm wondering how to get antifreeze and sanitizing solution into the fresh water holding tank. My old motorhome just had a spout that you poured it into.

Can anyone please tell me how to use the winterize/sanitize option on my 2018 Greyhawk 31FP? I was hoping I could pump antifreeze right through water intake with knobs turned to that winterize option instead of having to go through the pump which is a pain to get to under the bed. Thanks Judd

I have a 2018 Sandpiper with an antifreeze inlet. The instructions say close the tank valve and open the inlet valve. I assume that means the antifreeze hose but I am not sure.. Then just turn on the pump switch inside. I have already drained all the lines, set the heater bypass switch, drained...

I have a 2019 Cardinal Luxury 3350 RLX, I have tried every thing I know to try and winterize my unit. I have followed the instructions and still cannot get the pump to pull the antifreeze thru the line. I tried holding the bottle of antifreeze higher than the pump, I used a funnel and poured...

Hello FR community. Does anyone know the part number and where to buy the 3 way barbed valve used so the water pump can draw directly from an antifreeze bottle? I would like to add it to my trailer to make winterizing easier. Thanks in advance Scott

Just blew out my water line and put the extended hose into a new bottle of antifreeze. Turned on the water pump. Turned the valve to be inline and opened a calf water faucet and it won’t draw in any fluid. Unless it takes a while in which case I need to wait? Pump is definitely running...
