Charlie, I've been told by numerous people to fill it completely-with a small amount of Clorox in it. No, I'm not putting antifreeze in it! By "winteritze it" I meant to fill it up and put the proper ratio of Clorox in it which I'v e heard from many sources. I just didn't know what the capacity of the fresh water tank was to figure the ratio. Thanks.
