Quick
"Well this past fall I blew the lines good with air and my good air compressor to the right pressure no to over do what the lines can hold and long and a few times. Well with the super cold winter we had I got nervous after a few super cold days in Dec and figured I would pump rv antifreeze through all the lines which I have always done just in case my fears were right... A thought also went through my mind when I was pushing compressed air in from my compressor to my water lines thinking how clean is this air that blowing through the air lines and compressor into my fresh water drinking lines?"
"Now, my hands are free and I can maneuver around the RV inside and out, blowing the water out of the various low point drains and faucets... Had a friend try this technique and he couldn't figure out why he couldn't get any air pressure in the lines..... If you live in an area with mice or an area that doesn't really cold; don't forget to put the anode back in or you may wind up with critters or bugs making a warm nest in your water heater."

"Well I wondered about the low lines or the dips throughout the coach the pex may have in hidden areas if water didn't get totally blow out and accumulate in these areas. Well this past fall I blew the lines good with air and my good air compressor to the right pressure no to over do what the lines can hold and long and a few times. Well with the super cold winter we had I got nervous after a few super cold days in Dec and figured I would pump rv antifreeze through all the lines which I have always done just in case my fears were right. Well it would not pump through all the water lines because the accumulated water left in pex lines were frozen in some areas... Then the water pump finally drew in the antifreeze and I had no leaks and felt good the rest of the winter knowing the lines were protected. A thought also went through my mind when I was pushing compressed air in from my compressor to my water lines thinking how clean is this air that blowing through the air lines and compressor into my fresh water drinking lines? So the product does what its designed to do convert air to screw in part of water inlet after that I am not sure it gets all the water out."
"* There are many of these devices in the marketplace, but, most of them require you to hold the air chuck to them (similar to a tire)... I took one of these and put it on the end of one of those spring wrapped, garden hose strain relievers and attach it to the RV. Hook up my quick connect air hose on my compressor and set the air for 45 psi. Now, my hands are free and I can maneuver around the RV inside and out, blowing the water out of the various low point drains and faucets... Had a friend try this technique and he couldn't figure out why he couldn't get any air pressure in the lines... would take a fairly long time to fill your water heater with air and you are best served by bypassing the water heater and pulling the anode/drain plug to flush the tank of accumulated crud and checking the anode for wear. If you live in an area with mice or an area that doesn't really cold; don't forget to put the anode back in or you may wind up with critters or bugs making a warm nest in your water heater."
