Here's a direct link to a thread on Winterizing. The first post is a check list. It will give you some insight about what is done to winterize. Print it out and put it in your folder of Rpod information so you will have it when you need to winterize next fall. http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=846

Congratulation on your 192 Dan. First thing is to find your 2 or 3 way valve system located by your HW tank. Turn both or all three 1/2 turn so they are in the opposite position you find them in. Next, add water to your FW tank (10 gallons will suffice as 6 gallons will be used to fill your HW tank). Go to your HW tank and make sure the drain plug (1 1/16") is installed, if not give a couple wraps of teflon tape on the threads before installing). Turn on your pump and open one line at a time until air is purged out. Don't forget to do the toilet line. After getting air out of all your lines I put in 1/2 cup of bleach in 15 gallons of water in your FW tank. Run each line (I only do the cold lines, skipping the hot) until you smell bleach. Let set overnight and then flush out the next day.

I just took delivery of a new 192. We had it delivered from another state, Ohio, to us so we did not do a walk through. It has the "this unit has been winterized" on the door. What is the best practice to remove the antifreeze and ensure safe potible water?
Thanks, Dan
