Our new to us 2015 Lifestyle 5th wheel has an on demand water heater, this is my first time having one, my question is what do I need to do to winterize it, there doesn’t seem to be anywhere to drain it, any info would be great, thanks.

Two good you tube videos, but several more…
If you have a Furrion tankless:https://www.google.com/search?q=how%20to%20winterize%20rv%20on%20demand%20water%20heater&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-1-m#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:96115c87,vid:90Q3W1sHQqc,st:0
The first generic by Etrailer forgets to mention to open (to drain) all low point drains including fresh water holding tank before blowing air, close the low point drains. Ok to keep fresh tank drain open if not yet empty. Open one rv faucet (outside utility without a sprayer at end of hose is easiest), hook up air adapter and set compressor to 30 psi, blow air thru all faucets hot then cold one at a time, being certain to keep one open at all times (never trust that connections will hold against air even if only 30 pst!), repeat, leaving last one open, open all low point drains once again, turn off air. Close low point drains. Put rv antifreeze in all p traps. If you aren’t certain holding tanks are empty, empty, add an extra half gallon to toilet and one p trap to keep the drain valves from freezing. Once fresh holding tank is empty, run a bit of rv antifreeeze into fresh holding tank.
