    What is the best way to winterize a butler system? What I did tonight was as follows: I drained my fresh water tank,I then took the hose that goes from the freshwater tank to the Cat pump and put it in a jug of window washer fluid. I turned on the system and opened the hot water courtesy valve when the water coming out of the valve was blue I shut down the system. What do you think?

what happens...is guys drain out the coolant and don't let the truck and unit warm up enough before they put water in it...they f up the seals and crack the pump head.

you got to let the surrounding temp warm up and let the unit warm up good first

A heated garage is the best option
