Winterizing 2016 WH 27 RLDS

Will head out Wednesday to storage facility to winterize my WH 2016 RLDS for the first time. To save me some time when I get there can anyone tell me exactly where the Hot Water heater Bypass valve is located on this unit and if it has the line to pull the anti-freeze directly from the bottle? I have located all the low point drains and other valves but forgot to hunt the Water Heater Bypass and Anti-freeze intake.

Our 27RLS Jay Flight floor plan looks virtually the same as yours.

To access our water heater valves (located at the back of the water heater tank), we remove a panel (2 screws, IIRC) at the lower left of the linen storage; behind the toilet.

Our water pump (so anti freeze intake) is located under the kitchen sink.

Hope that helps.

On our 2015 Whitehawk 27 DSRL its all under the kitchen sink cabinet. The lower portion has a removable panel secured by two screws. Turn the THREE valves for the water heater bypass then close the fresh water valve for the water pump then open the valve on the antifreeze suction line. Insert line into antifreeze bottle and turn on pump. Hope this helps.

Winterizing 2016 WH 27 RLDS

Just to follow up on this thread, all my valves turned out to be under the sink behind a panel with 2 screws. This was so much easier than my old TT and the whole job took less than an hour.

Thanks OldmanAZ and Donztoyz for your quick response.

The HW bypass is where the HW heater is. You drain the HW tank, the bypass is on the other side of the wall.
