I live near Yosemite, ca at 6000 feet
to winterize I turn water off at street, drain all house pipes
put 1/4 c antifreeze in all toilet tanks and bowls
also 2 tblspoon antifreeze in ALL j and p traps and dishwasher and washer
drain all garden hoses
keep 1 electric heat at 33 deg F
procedure works great 20 years now...I go south to San Diego for 5 months in winter
BUT..this morning in san diego it is 30 deg F!! LOL my roses had to be covered..
climate change is real!!

We are going north to Indiana to assist a friend with
her now-vacant house. We assume it has been winterized and
no pipes are broken (if they are, we'll take care of that
problem when we get there).
But since we have our own properties to work on here
in Tennessee,
We'll only be there for a few days and then leave
for about a week.
Here's the question: during that week, do we
winterize the house again or just leave the water
dribbling?
We're from California and are new to this sort of
thing.
