Rockwood 8280WS Water filter housing broke

Was getting our RV ready to put in storage when the water filter housing either broke or was already broken. Regardless I'm not sure how much antifreeze got pumped onto the floor I'd say it was flowing for a solid couple minutes. I got it cleaned up as best I could but most of it ran behind the fridge and then through the floor. I've been down the road of a water damaged RV before and this has me really concerned. In addition to getting wet is there any other damage that can be done because it was antifreeze?

The RV antifreeze is not going to be any worse damage wise than regular water. If you've been down the road of a water damged RV as you say, then you know more than most of us as to what needs to be done to make sure it's all dried up...for anyone reading this...another classic example of why those onboard water filters should be removed and go with an exterior one.
