Water heater bypass
I've been reading several "winterizing" posts, and something just occurred to me. If you are blowing out the water lines instead of adding antifreeze, is it even necessary to bypass the water heater?...

The bypass is for those who run pink through their lines. If you winterize dry, the bypass is irrelevant.
I open the crossfeed briefly while on compressed air to purge any possible water (shouldn't be any), but then I close it back up. This way, the back of the water heater is ready to go in the spring without any further action.
