After draining my gas hot water boiler system, is there
any sort of
water additive I should add (e.g. anti-corrosive) when I
refill it?
And if so, how?

Thanks!





Prestone? In a boiler? I don't think so! Ethylene/Polyethylene glycol is
toxic. Why would you ever put that any where near your domestic? Use a
product like Harvey Heat or similar which carries all the anti-corrosive
additives as well as uses Propylene which is non-toxic.
