Taps open, or closed?

When winterizing with antifreeze, after it comes out of every tap, do you close or leave them open??

Open.

Don’t forget the outside shower.

My trailer is seasonal, I never used fresh tank. Used the pump to pump antifreeze. What about my city connection? Should I pour some antifreeze into it from outside? I did drain my low points

I leave mine closed after bleeding off the pressure.

With AF in your system, the WP running, and the FW hose disconnected, look in the FW connection, you will see a check valve, push the check valve with your pinky finger or something similar. Oh, and stand to the side or you will get pinked.
