NEW with COSMETIC BLEMISHES.  These are new never used plugs that operate and function exactly like our full priced plugs  ($14.95), but are being offered at a discounted price because of slight cosmetic blemishes.  Buy these now at a reduced price while they last!

NEW SINGLE PERSON QUICK CONNECT DESIGN!

The original patented (U.S. Patent # D600,323) Winterize RV Blow Out Plug design properly clears water lines to winterize your RV, travel trailer, camper, boat, pressure washers, sprinkler systems, or any water line that has a female garden hose connection.  The purging of water helps prevent damage/destruction to water lines from freezing temperatures.  If used properly the anti-freeze that is usually injected into the drinking water lines may not be needed. 

The new quick connect design of the Winterize RV Blowout Plug provides a direct, hands-free, single person connection between the city water port  and  air compressor.  This fitting is not a clumsy blow out hose made of multiple parts, but is a compact tool milled from a solid single piece of aluminum.  It combines a quick connect compressor plug with the standard garden hose thread.  Just lock the air compressor in place with your new Winterize RV Blow Out Plug and walk away.  This provides a cheaper, quicker, easier, safer, and more efficient method of clearing water lines.  Our blow out valve is not only for RV winterization, but is also engineered for freshwater/saltwater marine use.  Our plug helps answer the question " How do I winterize my RV, travel trailer, or camper by myself? "

The Quick Connect Air Compressor Fitting
One end of the tool is a standard industrial ¼” quick-connect compressor plug. This size and shape is the most common style being used.  This has the same shape and design as plugs usually found attached to your standard pneumatic tool (nailer, stapler, etc…) and will attach into any ¼” universal quick connect coupling. 

Middle Hex Nut
Middle section of adaptor consists of an over-sized 7/8" hex nut designed to allow easy tightening and loosening of plug by hand (either gloved or bare).  If additional torque is needed a socket, adjustable, or open/closed faced wrench may be used.

Male Garden Hose End
The other end of the tool is a standard ¾” male garden hose thread.  This is the same thread found on all garden hoses, RV and boat city water connections.  Many home sprinkler systems and pressure washers use this same thread.  The male garden hose end is bored to create a concave shape.  This shape will allow the plug to envelop the small gasketted screen that is typically found on RV city water inlets.  The result is a tighter/leak-proof connection.

When purchasing your RV, travel trailer, camper, or boat's winterizing supplies and accessories, don't forget to upgrade your blow out plug.   The heavy-duty Winterize RV Blow Out Plug made by Winterize Manufacturing, Inc. is the original and best quick connect blow out plug on the market.  This adaptor is a professional quality tool that was designed specifically to clear and clean water lines while having the user in mind.  Each plug is hand-made and individually inspected to ensure the highest of standards.

HOW TO USE

  1. Thread male garden hose end of blow out plug into city water port or other female garden hose end.
  2. Attach quick connect compressor end to universal coupling and blow your lines clear.
  3. DO NOT EXCEED 50 PSI – this may cause bodily injury or property damage.

HOW TO USE TO CLEAR WATER LINES OF RV’s

  1. Disconnect all inline water filtration systems and bypass them before starting.
  2. Drain any fresh water tanks.
  3. Drain hot water tank (make sure water is not hot or under pressure) and then by-pass the water heater (you may need to install a by-pass kit).
  4. Connect your new blow out plug to your city water inlet.
  5. Attach your air compressor and charge your system between 30 –50 PSI.
  6. DO NOT EXCEED 50 PSI. This may result in bodily injury or property damage.
  7. As the lines are fully charged with air, alternate opening all hot and cold water faucets. Don’t forget the toilets, showers (outdoor also), and low point drains. Start faucets from the closest to the farthest away. Repeat this step until no water or mist is discharged from your faucets and you are sure all water has been removed from the system. To help check this you can hold your hand under each open faucet or drain to verify no moisture is still being released.
  8. If all water has been removed from the system correctly then no anti-freeze will be needed in your drinking lines. If you are not sure that all water has been completely removed you can still fill your water lines with non-toxic RV antifreeze.
  9. Pour a few cups of non-toxic RV anti-freeze into each drain, toilet, and black/gray holding tanks.
  10. Consult your manufacturers manuals on how to properly winterize your ice maker, washing machine, and other appliances.

These steps are to be used as a guideline to help assist you in winterizing your water lines. It is important that you consult your owner’s manuals for specific winterizing instructions.
