Winterizing water lines

Has there been a discussion concerning winterizing water lines in a mobile home?

I am particularly interested in (1) air compressors, (2) how to attach an air compressor, and (3) why do mobile homes not have a water drain cock?

Hi alex

Help me. What is the connection between water lines and air compressors?

Thank you.

Harry,

I want to use my air compressor to blow out the water lines, so that during the Ohio winter the water lines/pipes won't freeze and break. I'll be out of state for 7-8 months.

You can do a search for winterizing. I know it has been discussed in the past. There is also a section in Mark's book that deals with it. The book is in the "Books & Parts" section of the site. Greg
