We are new owners of a 2009 3355. We winter camp on the weekends and would like to know the best way to ready the RV for possible cold weather while we are away from it. (We are in Texas.)
We have drained the system and sucked pink antifreeze into it. How much does it hold, anyway? 3 gallons?
Then we unscrewed the water heater plug to drain it. Surprise! Lots of pressure and also lots of gunk that I suspect to be lime. The plug has a rod attached to it that goes back into the bottom of the heater. Should we be draining the water heater? Is the gunk normal? What is the purpose of the rod?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
