I need to winterize the water system on a 2000 Affinity, if anyone could give me any advice it would be appreciated.

Thank you for your help, but I was look for input for this model. I've owned several motor homes since 1972, but this coach is total electric with aqua heat and a regular electric refrigerator.aqua

Bruce, I live in Rockwall, Texas, north east of Dallas and I have never winterized a coach. I am hooked up at my home with 50 amp service and do have my Aqua Hot set at the lowest it will go, 50 degrees. To keep the Aqua Hot from having to work so much when it does get cold I use an electric tower type heater that oscillates inside the coach and a small electric heater in the basement also. I can't imagine putting that pink stuff in my on board water supply, but I realize that you have to do what you have to do in cold climates. The coldest I remember it getting here in the last 8 years is about 12 degrees. I live on a lake so it is a little warmer here than the surrounding area. The longest my coach sits is about two months from mid November to mid January. By then I'm ready to hit the road again. Sorry to hear about your coach freezing up south of DFW.
