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? ...

I plan to do the blow out with antifreeze in drains this coming Tuesday before the temps drop. And I'll hook up an adapter of some sort to allow me to do it over and over with a small compressor.
DON'T!!!!!
A small compressor is a recipe for disaster. You need to have a compressor big enough to maintain a minimum of 40 psi continuously with a tap open, I.E. an open air line.
Too small a supply of air will not blow the small droplets of water out of the lines, these could collect at a low point and freeze.
If you have to use a small compressor, get as large a reserve tank as you can and rig it up in line so as to have as much air at full pressure as possible.
