So how do you keep your TM or portyTM water from freezing during the wintertime? is there a chemical used, used like the windshield wipers solution?

We use windshield wiper fluid through the water system and a oil heater leaning against the heat exchanger.

It stays warm in your van when you turn the heat on right...so why would it be freezing if you have a oil heater inside???? It shouldn't......

Greg.......that job to job must have been far apart and temperature had to be well below zero for your Ninja pump to freeze that fast.....maybe you took too long of a lunch hour and don't want to admit it.

Drug it out through the yard and snow packed the pump.
CCT, UFT, OCT, CRT, RRT, WRT, SMT, FSRT, JTC, JSR, JWR, MTC a great life, if you don't weaken.
