Help! Where can I buy antifreeze today in naples, fl

Walmart doesn't carry. Face palm! Would appreciate any leads.
Or, should we just blow the lines on the unit? If so, where does a girl do that from?
Thanks again.

Ha. Visiting Naples from Michigan. Heading back tomorrow. I did just find the antifreeze at WM despite being told they don't carry it. Relief.

Reinita, have you removed the panel in front of the W/filter yet? If so look for a Hose on the suction side of the W/pump that is (Free).Pull on it to bring it out the (W/filter access door).Now place this hose in the Anti-freeze jug.Now follow this hose to the other end and turn the valve handle to allow it to pump Anti-freeze. If you don't have this Assy.go get HELP! Youroo!!

Pink RV antifreeze can be found in lots of stores, yesterday I was at Sportsman's Whse and saw some there.
Ace hardware has it and I think it was AutoZone or O'reilly's that had some.

Glad you found it.

Air blow from the city water connection with all the drains underneath open.

That will get the inlet water line then you can use your pump to put antifreeze in. I assume you have done or seen this done before so you are aware of what to do with the water heater etc.

Any RV sales store will have it, ie. Camping World, there is one in Ft Myers. I have seen it within the last 10 days in Venice area Walmarts. I just bought 2 gal today at Walmart in Jacksonville. You can probably make it to the Atlanta area before you really need to do it. We are headed to Indy tomorrow, so I get to winterize in the morning.

i was surprised when you said the Walmart didn't carry it.

every Walmart i've ever been to, always has it in their RV section.
