Winterization
We have a new Itasca Navion and plan to use it off and on all winter. Over Thanksgiving and Christmas through mid January in FL and then TX in February. What kind of winterization should I plan for? ...

Different coaches, different methods. My 93 Pace Arrow Diesel pusher just took opening the drain valves as well as ALL the faucets & such. I do pour the pink stuff down the traps, that's it.
This season & drained the system then pulled the Hot Rod out of the Hot Water Heater & it was dry! I think the water in the tank get's siphoned out thru a tube inside the H.W.H.
In 10 years of winter here in NH. NEVER had a freeze issue.
My 07 Discovery is a different story. Will be my 1st year winterizing it.
For all you diesel owners heading from the South up to COLD North should carry some anti-gelling diesel additive. Had a friend tat topped off down south, (summer Blend). During the trip north he got into some rather cold temps & the diesel started jelling! He dumped in two bottles of the anti-jelling & was able to make it w/o loosing his engine.
