Antifreeze is so much easier...

Yup, and you are less likely to leave water behind and have an expensive repair. Don't forget, even if you are successful in blowing out the lines, you need to add antifreeze to the pump and to the drains.

Agree. IF you use your freshwater pump you need to get pink in it. That is why after the walkthrough, and first time winterizing. I don't use the fresh tank, or pump.

Running the pump dry for a couple minutes is sufficient to winterize it--or at least that has yet to fail me. RV water pumps can be run dry without harm, though I wouldn't suggest doing so for hours and hours.
