Hello,
I have an Escape E211RB. Does anyone know if there is a way to bypass the water heater for winterization? I do not see how to get to the back of the unit to see if there are any valves.
Thanks

I don't have first hand experience with your coach, so I looked at some internet pictures, based on that it looks like your water heater is under a wardrobe in the RT RE corner. Based on that I would look in the following places for access. To the left of the toilet (facing it, like you would if you had food poisoning) there should be a blank panel. This panel may be held in by two or so small screws that once removed would let you remove the panel. My next guess is maybe the bottom of the wardrobe is removeable- again with small screws or maybe KZ is depending on gravity to hold the panel in place.  |

Thanks for answering my post with the information. I looked at the Wardrobe and the floor appears to be tacked down with nails all around the perimeter.
I have not had a chance to remove the screw on panel yet to look behind it. When I do I will post what I found. Thanks again for responding

Yes water heater Bypass is behind the panel with 2 screws, I’m a bigger guy so I get my son or son inlaw to to give me a hand.

Thanks for the response. I will check behind the panel when the weather gets colder.

Finally got the winterizing done since we have still been using the trailer. The water heater bypass is indeed behind the removable panel under the rear wardrobe. The valves are a little hard to get too because of the vent pipe, but not too bad.
