How to winterize your pump...
To Prevent Corrosion & Freezing (Roller Style Pumps)
After cleaning pump (see below), flush it with a 50-50 solution of permanent-type automobile antifreeze (containing a rust inhibitor) and water. A rust inhibitor can also be squirted into the ports of the pump. Turn shaft several times to draw protective liquid through pump and coat entire inner surface. Drain pump and plug ports to keep out air during storage.
For short periods of idleness, noncorrosive liquids may be left in the pump, but air must be kept out. Plug ports or seal port connections.
Flush the Roller Pump After Each Use. One of the common causes of faulty pump performance is "gumming" or corrosion inside the pump. This prevents the rollers from moving freely in their rotor slots. Flush the pump with a solution that will neutralize liquid pumped, mixed according to manufacturer's directions.
