Yes. I also use Vodka, but to keep me warm while I put the pink stuff in. I
also blow the system as dry as possible after adding the antifreeze. This does
not winterize the tank. I pump that dry and add a couple gallons of pink for
insurance. In the spring I pump that dry from the closest faucet and add a
small portion of bleach to cut the taste/smell.

Seems like this would defeat the effects of adding it to the tank.
