Main Message Board / Winterizing Lectra/San/MC
October 06, 2011, 07:55:17 PM
Our current 1999 C34 Mk2, in addition to the standard holding tank, is equipped with a 2009 LST/MC. Marine Sanitation Unit.
The maintenance instructions re Winter Layup calls for the pumping out of both sides of the treatment tank via the crossover cap and the disconnection of the intake and output hoses.
As an alternative is there any reason why one could not pump into/thru the Lectra/San Unit the standard non- toxic pink RV/Marine minus 40c anti-freeze that is commonly used here to winterize potable water & head systems? Of course in the Spring the anti-freeze would need to be well flushed out. 
Will be interested to hear the expertise of Peggy Hall and others. Thank you,  Frank

Would be interested in hearing from any member who can provide specifications and advice re the building of a steel cradle which can be used to both transport (on a hydraulic marine transport trailer) and store a 1999 Catalina 34 Mk11, Wing Keel.
