Instead of relying on a separate hand pump each season, this kit installs permanently in-line with your water pump so winterizing becomes a one-time setup rather than an annual chore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes a brass 3-way valve, a 32 inch siphon hose for drawing antifreeze from a jug into the system, Teflon tape (40 inches long) for leak-proof thread seals, and pump adapter fittings that connect the valve into your existing water line. Installation requires only an adjustable wrench, and once in place the valve lets you switch between normal water pump operation and antifreeze circulation as needed each season. The kit installs on water pump ports sized 1\/2 inch - 14 NPT or NPSM. The water pump itself is not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll fittings are CSA Low Lead Content Certified and comply with California's AB1953 and Vermont Act 193 Low Lead Laws, so the kit is suited for use on drinking water systems. For added efficiency, the kit can be paired with a Camco Water Heater By-Pass Kit (SKUs 35953, 35963, 35983, 37463) to bypass the water heater and reduce the amount of antifreeze needed to protect the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Camco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36543\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass 3-way valve, 32 inch siphon hose, Teflon tape (40 inches long), pump adapter fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass valve body, solid construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.63 inches L x 7.75 inches W x 1.75 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7475 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePort Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2 inch - 14 NPT or NPSM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Permanent, one-time installation with an adjustable wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e CSA Low Lead Content Certified; complies with California AB1953 and Vermont Act 193 Low Lead Laws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Accessory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Camco Water Heater By-Pass Kit (SKUs 35953, 35963, 35983, 37463)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 014717365437\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the Camco Pump Converter Winterizing Kit (36543) actually do?\u003c\/strong\u003e It lets you use your boat or RV's own water pump to draw antifreeze through the plumbing system instead of using a separate hand pump, by installing a brass 3-way valve permanently in-line with the pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the water pump included with kit 36543?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the water pump is not included in the Camco Pump Converter Winterizing Kit.
