It's not the best system. The pump is at the absolute low point and is above the canister fittings. So you have to either disconnect the pump to drain those lines, and then run it a few seconds, or you have to use the pump to pump antifreeze.

(I hate that because we drink water from our tank, and the taste is a problem with AF usage. So I added a winterizing fitting by the pump.)
