I got my last one from BusDepot. It has significantly less flow than the one
it replaced (but that makes the water last longer).  And yes, lack of
winterizing is what killed its predesessor. I put the pink RV antifreeze in
after Leavenworth (early Oct) and remove it in early May. Takes 3 gallons to
actually get it circulating. Crummy pump and a b*#&h to prime.
