Sp-189: What is the accessory hose for?

I presume winterizing? It is white, about a foot and a half, has a plug (looks like something you'd stick into somewhere, not threaded) the other end is just cut.

Thanks S.

I asked the same question - maybe on this forum. It is for winterizing.
The hose attaches to the suction or intake side of the water pump using the fitting and the other end goes into the jug of RV antifreeze

As bikendan said it might be nice to see a photo of hose in question to better help you.

Pictures attached.

Is the second one my pump? If so, do I have a water filter? How does the hose get attached?

Any why doesn't the user manual cover any of this? Everything is very generic.

Yup, that's the pump. Intake is on the right. Disconnect it and hook up the winterizing hose.

I dont't see a valve, usually is none. The line you would disconnect is connected to the FW tank. Any maybe 40 gallons of water or more. Make sure to drain that first!
