winterize a washing machine
Metalman is pretty close to the process. I start a wash load while hooked up to antifreeze so that the water lines running to the washer are treated. Just pouring antifreeze in the washer may leave you vulnerable. Once I see pink in the washer I interrupt the cycle and do a spin/drain cycle to finish. To de-winterize I run a complete wash cycle to remove the antifreeze.
Pretty amazing having a washer/dryer in a motorhome. I remember in the beginning "thinking we don't need that". Kind of like a long time ago when we scoffed at anyone who was so lazy as to use a remote control for their TV.
