Every type of. RV has a best winterizing method. Compressed air and the pumped glycol A/F are both effective, it depends on access to compessed air and the water systems in your RV. I've winterized dozens of every type.
To pump the 'pink' as its known, you have to have a way to switch suction from your fresh water tank to a hose that drars from the 'pink ' gallon' jug.
We had 2 rigs from the 70-80s that did not hava a 2 way valve, so to switch from the tank to the suction hose for the pink was a simple wrench job, the suction from the tank a different hose for A/F or compressed air.
Whatever your unit is, drain and bypass the cold water heater, it may be 1 - 3 position valve or 3 on the inside, then remove the drain plug outside.
Then hook up your air compressor set to no more than 60 psi output or put a hose in the jug of pink. then go around, nearest to farthest 2 times around to get the pink or air with some mist only.
It it really simpe, learn your unit, think it thruugh
