Greg, This is my final winterization checklist that I confirmed with Tommy at Oliver. That's 2 cups of antifreeze in each of the drains. Also, it took quite awhile to blow out all of the water from the plumbing using my small air compressor: * Attach air compressor set at 35 psi to the winterization/boondocking inlet. * Close all faucets except kitchen sink and operate compressor until no more water comes out of faucet. * Repeat for bathroom faucet. * Repeat for outside shower. * Repeat same process with air compressor attached to fresh water fill * Repeat same process with air compressor attached to city water connection. * Repeat same process with black tank rinse inlet. * Turn on outside shower and use water pump to pump dry. * Replace anode in water heater * Reverse step to bypass water heater * Pour small amount of RV antifreeze in kitchen/bathroom sinks and shower drain to protect the traps * Pour 2 cups of RV antifreeze into: * kitchen sink * bathroom sink * shower drain * toilet & flush * Pour 1 cup of antifreeze into toilet bowl to protect seal * Close fresh water drain * Return valves to normal configuration * Open all faucets including outside shower * Remove all fabric covered cushions including mattresses. To use the trailer when ready in the spring, you don’t need to do anything because you don’t have antifreeze in anything other than the drains. Add remove strainer bowl on inlet side of water pump, empty water from bowl, clean any debris from metal screen, and reinstall Don
