No Water in Either Shower While Dewinterizing

So I winterized myself this year and I am now dewinterizing. While flushing out the antifreeze, I was unable to get any water flowing through either in the inside or outside shower. Both will dribble a tiny but, but that is it. I can hear the water pump kick on for a second and then stop.


All other faucets and toilet have water flowing normally. I figured I would ask before I start tearing anything apart in case there is an easy fix. Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem may be and a possible solution?

After getting done with de-winterizing: did you get all of the valves set back to where they need to be?

I believe so. First time winterizing / dewinterizing. If they weren't in the correct position, would any of the other faucets work?

Are the valves on the shower heads themselves open?

This model has the tankless water heater.


The shower heads don't have any valves at the head itself. Only the hot and cold taps. Tried both hot and cold. Same result.

After saying that, I thought I better doublecheck.
They both have the push through style and they were both closed.

Look at it this way: it cost nothing to fix...

Beer isn't a cost: it's an investment in one's future emotional well-being.

I have the unlimited hot water in my 2019 Thor Axis RV and I would like to dewinterize it myself this year. Can you tell me if this is the correct way to do it and if I am forgetting anything? Fill water holding tank with water, turn on pump and run all faucets and showers and toilet. then hook water up to city water connection and run water through all of the above again. Thank you K.
