Hello ... I need some help. I am trying to winterize my motor home and I am not sure how to bypass the HWT. My plumbing/shutoff valves are located under the bed in the top right corner, under the mattress. I had a friend help me winterize it a few weeks ago; we pulled the plug in the HWT to drain it, but the antifreeze was pouring out of the HWT and we were winterizing it. My concern is there isn't enough antifreeze in the hot water lines to protect them. I am not even sure if there is a bypass for the HWT? I bought the unit used, so this is my first time winterizing it. Can I put the plug back in and add more antifreeze by pumping it back through the lines or with the antifreeze damage my HWT? I though maybe to rerun the antifreeze with the plug in, and then drain the HWT after I have rerun it through the lines again?
