Just about everytime I winterize, the city water fitting will not take antifreeze I was trying to pump in. Despite following my instructions to open the shower valve. This time I opened the sink valve and I could pump in antifreeze. The system can airlock and opening a valve seems to make the problem disappear. Now if I can just remember to change my winterization check list....... GJ

I hate that, I enjoyed his posts.

Woo-Hoo Congrats and a warm welcome back to the Family. Bill p.s. John Davies had to sell "Mouse" due to health issues

Thanks John... Did not need to go to the water hose extreme. Seems the faucets do not like to flow until the pump completely stops running.... and the pump does not like to completely stop running until it's had a little rest. So, after a few rest stops for me and the pump...it all worked fine. I will remember the water hose trick for the future. And make sure I have a six pack on hand for the next winterization. Thanks!

From JD's posts and others about this product I have to agree that this appears to be a great option. Worth a look by many owners. However, as I have previously stated, for those with limited headroom for storage of our OE2's, the Chill Cube's extra 5 1/2" height above what most slim line units have can be a deal killing concern. In 2019 I saw an RV try to pass under an old railroad bridge where an asphault overlay had been done, but the posted bridge clearance had not been updated. He cleared off several items on his roof. At the time I thought the driver was an idiot and his mistake was sadly funny. But when I stopped and helped him measure the actual clearance, I became a witness in his insurance report. Not so funny after all. With my tall telestep ladder he "rattle canned" paint sprayed out the wrong height posted. Suspect the RR got the bill for repairs. But he had to suffer for some time without his two AC's, antenna, and exhaust fan. What a PITA for his family. So if increasing the height of anything on your roof, please re-adjust your bridge clearance alert as well. My personal alert is anytime I see a posted clearance of 10 feet 0 inches (or less), I stop and slow walk the passage. So knowing what your trailer's actual clearance minimum is a smart idea! GJ
