Winterizing splendide washer dryer

I successfully (fingers crossed) winterized my coach including Aqua hot and washer/dryer. I ensured both hot and cold taps including the outside faucet and shower head got pure pink out of them and that all tanks were empty prior to starting the project
My question, and I think I have not seen it mentioned anywhere is  The hot and cold water valves located under the carpet/floor in the closet were of course open to do the washer. After completion am I to close these or does it not matter?
Suggestions from experience would be appreciated!

When I did mine, I just left them open. Just remember  to close them in the spring.  ^.^d

The ones in the coach that feed the washer?  We never touched ours (unless pulling the machine out).  When we winterized, we'd make sure to pull pink through both the hot and cold fills until we could see it in the washer's drum, then drain to help protect the washer's drain plumbing.

The hot/cold drains for the entire coach are something different.  We would leave those open and close them when we de-winterized.
