Ok, I am about to dewinterize my Puma TT. Let see if I got the steps right...
1. Leave the bypass closed... Put in the metal rod in the hot water heater tightly...
2. Open all lines and let the pink stuff go out... by running water through the fresh water tank. until it is clear...
3. Close lines and then I think this year I want to add some bleach to the tank and let it run through the lines... I know only a 1/4 cup. Let it sit a hour or so and then flush the lines.. Once this is done
4. Now is it time to open the bypass valve and let the heater fill.
Ok, there it is.. tell me if my steps are right or need a little rearranging... Or if they are totally different.. This is my first year to winterize it myself and I think we did it right and this is the first time for us to de-winterize what we did...
I know I can get some great advice here... Thank you!!!
I blow out the lines to get the A/F out, then run clear water thru the lines to get rest of A/F out, install heater drain plug, close the bypass, fill freshwater (FW) tank with water/ bleach, run pump until I smell bleach at each faucet and then let it sit for at least an hour and then run more water thru the lines until FW tank is empty.

#4 in particular. I always notice some scale breaking loose and draining from Hot water tank anode plug hole. Draining through that is the only way I know to get it out.
