Tankless hot water heater

When winterizing a tankless instant hot water heater if you leave the valves in same position antifreeze should go through the tankless hot water heater Right. Thank you for your help We have a 2018 Cedar Creek Hathaway 34RL2

If your pumping antifreeze through the system and have antifreeze coming out the hot water faucet, then yes the water heater had antifreeze in it.

We've got a CC36CK2 (similar to your 34RL) with a tankless water heater. Is there a drain plug on the tankless system?

I called the manufacturer. Two ways to do it, either works. Don't touch the bypass valves just run antifreeze through the system. There is a drain on the back of the water heater but the wall is in the way and you can't get to it. That would be the other way. I just run ant-freeze through my system. Has worked for the last two Winters.
