Freeze-proofing the HOS's solution lines

Derek 

any1 have an Orbot in the great white North?

so bringing it in my house at the end of every day, to keep the solution pump from freezing and bursting, is not gonna happen.

if i run RV antifreeze thru the lines at the end of every day, will this harm any of the components?

it worked in my Recoil, so i would GUESS it will work with any other sol pump and sol lines.

thanx --- Derek.

I have one and been thinking this myself.
I use windshield washer fluid my self in the Recoil. I would use this cars use it and the lines do not freeze.

I still may take it in at night

hi David

Eddie V recommended the RV antifreeze to me and it worked great. i still have the same 3 gallon jug from all those years ago.

i considered the windshield washing fluid, but man it would really stink if it burst :-O

RV stuff is uber cheap to.

thanx

So Derek if I'm not mistaken you now have an Orbot, Cimex and a Challenger? That's quite a setup for low moisture cleaning. Well done! Those Orbot's are nice looking machines.
