Emery,

Thanks for setting us straight. From long ago, I recall that if you are protected to -10 F, with ethylene glycol antifreeze, lower temperatures will result in ice crystals forming inside the liquid, not as a destructive solid. But +5 is too high for that to occur.

Just what I read back in the last century.
