I usually take 15 minutes to winterize mine... what takes other people so long?
Drain the water heater, bypass the water heater.
Ensure you have empty black/gray water tanks.
2 gallons of antifreeze into the winterization valve, turn on pump.
Outside shower, outdoor kitchen, bathroom, kitchen valves opened til pink, then closed.
Dump remaining antifreeze into traps.
Lock door, walk away.
Even leisurely, that's about 15 minutes.
OP, I'm doubtful YOUR's was done right, because if they didn't have access to the inside of the camper, how did they bypass your water heater, how did they open your interior valves, how did they introduce antifreeze into the system?
Its easy to check though, just go in your camper and turn on your water pump and open each valve. A little bit of pink should drip if they are filled.
