Topic: Flush Anti-Freeze Posted: 26 Jul 2011 at 11:53am |
This is my first spring with my R-Pod and I have to flush the anti-freeze out of the system. No idea how to do that safely in a neighborhood full of dogs. Any suggestions?

OK that was a really dumb question. I realize now it goes into my grey water tank and I have to dump it at a dumping station... duh!

If it was done with proper RV antifreeze and hopefully it was then you have no worries to begin with as the RV type of antifreeze is non-toxic.
Propylene glycol, the primary ingredient in RV anti-freeze, is a common food additive that is also used in many other products such as cosmetics. It's both biodegradable and water soluble, and requires no special handling in normal consumer quantities.

Some of it will end up in your gray tank some in the black tank. Don't forget to take the caps off the low-point drains outside for a second or two.
