What do you guys do with the cooling system in the Bay Area's "winter"?
At what temps do you consider doing something with the cooling system?
If you do anything, do you just drain it and leave it dry or add some anti-freeze?
Thanks.

If it doesn't freeze, just leave it alone. Even if it freezes marginally (a few degrees under at night, over during the day), you're fine. I use antifreeze, but that's because it gets down well under freezing for weeks at a time.

Ha. I live in the low rent district so no 4 car, heated garage here.
I've only lived in the area for 2 winters. Never paid attention to how cold it gets here. Maybe I'm just paranoid. Back in NY, I'd put some more anti freeze in the winter but we ain't in NY anymore.
