Dewinterizing

I was just wondering what the proper technique for Dewinterizing was if any?
Thanks RJ

Google (or whatever search engine you prefer) is your friend:

http://www.marxrv.com/skp/dewinterize.htm

http://www.rverscorner.com/dewinterize.html

It's basically the reverse process of winterizing.

Ok thanks. But I didn't do the winterizing so I will have to figure that out too. We just bought the TT a month ago so I'm new to rving.

OK, to learn more about winterization, you can search on that that word as well. There are hundreds of good articles on the net about the process. Dewinterizing is simply undoing the winterizing work.

Here's a good writeup on spring start up from the Sunline Club:

(FWIW, RV's are all pretty much the same when it comes to plumbing systems, electric systems, etc. so the info from a Sunline article like this will 100% apply to your Keystone.)

I'm in the same boat, but a stop by my dealer on the way up north to de-winterize is 65 bucks, along with checking my seals on my roof. Same for winterizing on the way back from a trip in September, along with conditioning the roof and re-sealing anything. 65 dollars. Good piece of mind so 130 dollars a year is nothing for an expensive toy hauler.

That's not a bad idea. I just wish there was a dealer closer to me. The nearest dealer is 75 miles away and I don't plan on going that way camping any this year.
