Everybody, whoa! I termed it "winterizing" which is what we do in ARIZONA--we don't live in the Yukon. Our winters here are differnet. It hardly ever freeezes here, yes I know my Physics about water expanding when frozen. I rarely drink any of the water which comes out of the FRESH water tank anyway. However, I do not want any algae or other problems and from many sources( yes, other forums) they say fill it up and put Clorox in it. Then when they get ready to travel in late Spring, they empty it, flush it, and put fresh water in it.
