Your friendly local Wal-Mart has RV antifreeze too. I got mine there this year "Prestone" brand. That's right. Prestone RV antifreeze.

I, too, have a Camco water heater bypass kit. Just be sure you have the valves set right so you're not filling the HW tank. I did a dumb-dumb & missed that at first. I used an extra gallon of antifreeze before I discovered it.

Don't forget to drain the ice maker line to your freezer if you have one. Ours has a valve in the line under the fridge.

On my 92 Breakaway the water pump is located right next to the fresh water tank behind the drivers seat. Also the only three drains I have are located; 1 at the fresh water tank, one under the fridge " take the bottom drawer out to get at it, and right in front of the furnace " take out the air intake screen to get at this one. The water heater is a seperate issue all together.

PS. As I told Dave years ago: hook up the air comp. at no more then 60PSI open everything up and go have lunch (time is your friend). Remember to turn the pump on (watch what blows out the faucetes) also open up the flush valves by sticking some thing in it to jam it open during this operation. A plastic cup works.

We use ours all winter by flushing with antifreeze and using bottled water, and never had any problems.
