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 live in COOOOLD MN and we use the Moho all winter long. I blow our lines out every fall (just did this about 2 weeks ago) and pour the pink down each drain. This has worked for me for many years. I used to run the pink through the lines, but I do not have a water heater bypass, so I could never get it into the hot water lines anyway.
If I had a hot water bypass (old water heater that the kits do not work on) I would blow and run the pink... I could do this in about 20 minutes total, so once you get used to doing both, you'll be good to go.
I leave my pump on when I first start to blow the lines. This removes the water from the from the pump, as far as I can tell.
I would never leave water in the lines in the cold. As the very least blow them out with 50 psi and blow until you see no water coming out. I do pause the air and then repeat and the first few times after I pause, I get a big flow of water, so pausing and repeating is important.
Good luck!!!
