    Hey all, im picking up a new tank from my nephew and its got scummy vinegar water in it. Im gonna drain it and rinse it good but i worry about the seals freezing on my way home. Maybe a 10 min drive

    Cold temps won't affect the seals themselves just wipe it out with a towel to remove any excess water and you should be fine.

    Did you ever get that RO working?
