Since you have petcocks on the block I would drain and catch it so you can reuse it, I seen its $28 a gallon.... Flush the system out with water and fill with 50/50 antifreeze. Repeat in the spring and put the blue back in. I question just how detrimental it would be to mix regular antifreeze with it. Probably wouldn't hurt anything but at $28 a gallon I am running it through a filter and saving it.

I have not done this but I heard the idea of using RV antifreeze!
They said it has less residue and easier to remove in the spring/ I am concerned as one way to lower the freezing point is to simply add salt to the water
Has anyone done this?
