and/or when freezing temperatures

are expected. If a pump protector/

winterizer is not available, *RV

antifreeze needs to be run through the

pump as outlined in the steps below.

winterizer or *RV antifreeze is to

provide proper lubrication to the

internal seals of the pump regardless

of temperature or environment.
