Helpful RV Gadget: Blow out plug

By Chris Dougherty
Certified RV technician

When it’s time to winterize your RV blowing out the water system can be a pain. Having a quick disconnect blow out plug like the one made by Winterize Manufacturing makes the job a lot easier. All you have to do is screw the plug into the city water inlet of your coach, set your compressor to 50 psi (a compressor with a tank is required — sorry, the little tire inflaters won’t cut it), and connect the hose directly to this plug. Then proceed to make certain everything in the RV is blown out.

The blow out plug is:
• Milled from a single solid piece of aircraft high quality aluminum – strong, durable, corrosion resistant – drinking water safe
• Quick connect compressor fitting (most common style produced allowing max air flow) will attach to any 1/4″ universal coupling.

It is available at Amazon.
