Yes, I have always disconnected the accumulator so it will drain out the
bottom. The one time i forgot it cracked and had to be replaced. Also
all my water lines can be opened for draining at their lowest point,
just in forward of the engine.

If we are talking about the water pressure accumulators, I wonder if
anyone has any experience with winterising them. Do you need to
disconnect it for the winter? Do you go through any extra steps?

Subject: Stus-List Water system
Listers:
I replaced my potable water tank last year and discovered that the
water system must have a leak in one or more of the ancient
hoses/fittings. I decided that it’s time to replace the old hoses and
check/replace fittings, and I’m considering also adding an accumulator
tank. The hose currently coming from the tank is 5/8” ID, but the
accumulator tank I’m thinking about adding to the system accepts 1/2”
ID hose. Two questions: 1) are small accumulator tanks worth the cost
and effort to install; and 2) is there any benefit of using 5/8” hose
instead of 1/2” hose (or vice versa). Please advise. Thanks.
