Re-use the "pink stuff"

ya

I think you can, but jeez, it's cheap stuff.

It depends on how much it bacame diluted. If you poured one gallon in, there was probably about a gallon of water in the traps, so you may have diluted it by 30 - 40% already. I wouldn't take a chance on it to save $3.75.

Agree it is probably diluted. Why chance it to save a coupla bucks.

If you get it at Ace hardware in the fall, they usually have it on sale for $2.99 a gal with a $1/gal rebate on up to 3 gals.

You can use it. It will be diluted. How cold does it get in Louisville KY? You may or may not be okay depending on the winter temperature.

Hi,

I reuse mine. I blow the lines, then install, and then immediately blow the lines again saving the antifreeze. I often winterize seven times per year.

I didn't blow the lines; didn't even think about it being diluted. I'll definitely get it at ACE next year - thanks.

One more thing - how do you dispose of the pink stuff?

I've seen other people do exactly as pianotuna does -- blow lines, get pink stuff through all faucets and toilet, then blow the lines again with compressed air. Nice thing with this method is that any water is well mixed with antifreeze, and that de-winterization is a lot easier, with less pink stuff to add a foul taste.
