Fresh Water & Winter

[fish-n-fun]

I have a tank full of fresh water and the only way I see to drain it for the winter is to remove the attached pump. Is there anothe option?

With my Islander,I turn on the pump and run all the water out of the tank that way,I have 4 outlets so it takes a short amount of time,then I put RV antifreeze into the tank along with some water and run it through the system until all the outlets are showing pink,thats the color of the antifreeze,at that point you should be good to go

Winterizing water system

chrisA. has it right.

I'm not sure which boat your trying to winterize but if you have a water heater you have to drain and by-pass it to pass antifreeze through the hot water lines.
