Winterization: Liquid Pickling

WINTERIZATION PROCESS:
Seawater Pro, LLC. is a company that specializes in the production of high- quality watermakers. In order to ensure that our products maintain their optimal performance and longevity, the company recommends implementing freeze protection for the preservation of their watermakers during the winter months.
Freeze protection involves the use of special additives, such as 100% food- grade propylene glycol and water [7 propylene glycol:2 water gallon ratio], to help prevent water from freezing inside the watermaker’s components and causing damage. When water freezes, it expands, and this can cause internal components to crack or break, leading to costly repairs. By implementing freeze protection, Seawater Pro, LLC. ensures that their watermakers are protected from these potentially costly damages.
To effectively implement freeze protection, it is important to follow the proper winterization procedures. This involves draining all water from the system, adding the appropriate amount of propylene glycol and water to the components, and running the system on boost pump pressure ONLY to ensure that the freeze-protection solution is evenly distributed throughout the system. DO NOT PRESSURIZE THE SYSTEM! By doing this, the watermaker is protected from freezing temperatures and can be easily restarted in the spring.
In addition to freeze protection, Seawater Pro, LLC. recommends regular maintenance and servicing of their watermakers to ensure optimal performance. This includes regular filter changes, cleaning of the system, and inspection of the components for any signs of wear or damage.
100% Food-Grade Propylene Glycol”
Propylene glycol is an odorless chemical compound that is used as an anti- freeze solution in various industries. Unlike its cousin, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol is non-toxic and safe for human consumption. It has a low freezing point of -60°C, which makes it an ideal coolant for extreme cold temperatures.
Seawater Pro, LLC, a Florida-based company, manufactures 100% propylene glycol-based products that are used in marine desalination systems. Seawater Pro’s propylene glycol is specially manufactured with a light blue colored tint. Our anti-freeze solutions are designed to protect against freezing temperatures and corrosion, making them a popular choice for boat owners. Seawater Pro’s anti-freeze solutions are made with pure propylene glycol, which provides maximum protection against freezing. Products are also biodegradable and environmentally friendly, making them a preferred choice for those who are looking for eco-friendly anti-freeze solutions that won’t harm marine life or the environment.
100% food-grade propylene glycol is an excellent anti-freeze solution that is safe, effective, and environmentally friendly. Companies like Seawater Pro, LLC. are dedicated to producing high-quality products that meet the needs of their customers. As a boat owner or watermaker user, understanding that propylene glycol-based anti-freeze solutions can help protect your equipment from the damaging effects of freezing temperatures is imperative.
FREEZE PROTECTION: WARNING
There is a high probability of damaging your watermaker by exposing it to severe cold or icy conditions. The following procedure will protect your watermaker against freeze damage.
DO NOT USE ETHYLENE GLYCOL (FOUND IN AUTOMOTIVE ANTIFREEZE PRODUCTS) FOR FREEZE-PROTECTING YOUR WATERMAKER. ETHYLENE GLYCOL IS A TOXIC SUBSTANCE AND MUST NOT BE INGESTED OR COME INTO CONTACT WITH YOUR SYSTEM.
USE ONLY FOOD-GRADE NON-TOXIC PROPYLENE GLYCOL. DO NOT USE PROPYLENE GLYCOL BLENDED WITH SUPPLEMENTARY ADDITIVES.
Freeze Protection for Watermakers: Winterization Tips from Seawater Pro, LLC
One of the biggest risks to a watermaker during the winter months is freeze damage. Water left inside of the system can freeze, expand, and cause irreversible damage to delicate components. To ensure your watermaker stays in good condition throughout the winter, it’s important to take steps to protect it from freezing temperatures.
Seawater Pro, LLC is a leading manufacturer of watermakers for boats and adventure lovers. Their team of experts has provided some tips and recommendations for winterizing your watermaker to protect it from freeze damage.

  1. Drain the System
    Before winterizing your watermaker, it’s crucial to ensure that all water is drained from the system. This means opening all valves and disconnecting any water hoses. Use compressed air to blow out any remaining water from the system. Be sure to open all faucets and drains to ensure that all water has been removed.

  2. Use 100% Food-Grade Propylene Glycol Anti-Freeze
    Using 100% food-grade propylene glycol as an anti-freeze is an effective way to ensure that your watermaker is protected throughout the winter months. It is a non-toxic, marine-specific anti-freeze. Use a1 propylene glycol: 2 water gallon ratio ina bucket, mixed thoroughly, with boost pump pressure ONLY to circulate the solution throughout the system. Then cap off all inlets and outlets to prevent drying out the membranes.

  3. Remove Pre-Filters
    It’s important to remove all pre-filters from the watermaker before winterizing it. This will prevent the filters from becoming damaged due to freezing temperatures. Be sure to store the filters in a dry, warm location to prevent damage.

  4. Keep the System Dry
    After all water has been drained from the system, it’s important to keep the system dry to prevent any moisture buildup. Use a dry cloth to wipe down all components, and ensure that the system is completely dry before storing it for the winter.

By following these simple steps, you can help protect your watermaker from freeze damage, and rest assured that your Seawater Pro watermaker will remain in excellent condition throughout the winter months. Seawater Pro, LLC is committed to helping its customers keep their watermakers in top condition all year round.
Post-Winterizing: Tips from Seawater Pro, LLC
After successfully winterizing your watermaker using Seawater Pro, LLC products, there are a few important steps you should take to ensure that your system is ready to return to operation.

  1. Check all Connections
    Inspect all hose and pipe connections to make sure they are tight and secure. Reconnect high- pressure hose from pump to membranes.

  2. Ensure Pre-filters are Reinstalled
    Reinstall the pre-filters once the system is ready to be operated again.

  3. Lubricate Moving Parts
    Apply a light coat of lubricant to any moving parts, such as the pump or motors. This will ensure the system runs smoothly when it is reactivated.

  4. Pre-Assembly
    When ready to use the system again, use boost pump pressure to run the system’s (depressurized) brine water overboard for 30 minutes before making product water. Once the brine has been run overboard for 30 minutes, connect the freshwater product hose from the system to the tank.

  5. Boost Pump Assembly
    Follow the steps on Page 3 for Boost Pump assembly procedures. Enjoy fresh water!
