Well let me try to add the question... we followed the steps, draining, air compression in the city water line and pumped anti freeze but we see standing water in the bathroom drain we can't seem to drain. Will extra antifreeze take care of this?

Blowing out clears the water supply lines.

The water you see is in the drain trap. Simply pour a cup or so of RV antifreeze in the kitchen sink, vanity, and shower drains and you will be fine.


Regards,

JD

If you don't have an air compressor is there another method? If you area only goes below 30 degrees every so often can you just do the antifreeze pouring and empty if hot water valve?

For the shower drain use a shop vac to suction the water out, then pour AF into the trap. OK to skip the vacuum and just use AF.
