low point drains with antifreeze

Do I need to open then recap the low point drains when using antifreeze or are they just used for draining?

  • I opened them just enough for the liquid to drip out. It was pink. Guess I'm OK. THANks for the replies. :-).

    Yes, open to ensure antifreeze is flowing out, then close.
  • I open them until pink stuff comes out, then close them. after letting the water drain out of course.

  • If you are pumping antifreeze thru the lines yes I would close your low point drains.
