Backflow preventers?
This year I had a "brilliant" idea to pump antifreeze through my camper's plumbing by backfeeding through the shower hose.
My camper does not have a winterizing kit or hot water tank bypass. It's a long story, but suffice it to say installing them is not an option.
I bought a small pump sprayer and a fitting that connected the sprayer hose to the shower hose. Connected everything up, put 1 gallon of pink stuff in the sprayer, opened all the faucets in the camper, and started pumping.
Antifreeze would not flow into the pipes.
Do these cheap faucets have some sort of backflow preventers in them?
