Every time I read these stories I am so glad I blow my lines and don't need to deal flushing the pink stuff out of the lines. I need to do this several times a year as we four season camp.
what kind of air pressure do you use? I imagine my little 12v air compressor is not strong enough. Do you also open the low point drains to accelerate the process?
I use the on board compressor for my Pacbrake, 1-1/2 gal tank builds to 150 psi. may sure either a faucet is open or the low point drain caps are removed. I blow and switch faucets then close all faucets and blow out through the low point. This seems to work well as we have temps into single digits several days here this winter and no issues. the only place I put the pink stuff is the P traps. I drain the FW tank then cycle the pump for about ten seconds.
Many of the Oregon SP we like don't have full hookups so this works great for us.
This is a process we repeat several times a year.
