Basic Types of Antifreeze/Coolant

Let’s talk about the basic types of antifreeze/coolant. The days when a customer could come in and say “give me a bottle of the green stuff” are long gone. The proliferation of coolant colors that started more than two decades ago continues to this day, with different brands and types of coolant often using the same or similar colors.

Since I live in a warm climate I have never used antifreeze. I use pure water only. Now if I lived in a cold climate of course I would use antifreeze to keep my coolant from freezing. That's why they call it antifreeze😊
Also, no kind of liquid will boil in a sealed system. Have you ever heard of a pressure cooker? Did you ever see water boil inside a pressure cooker? No, because it can't. And we have things called radiator caps which release pressure at 15 psi just in case. As far as corrosion goes, the only way corrosion can begin is if additional oxygen is added to the coolant system. You might want to look up what causes rust. It's actually burning of metal. Burning can't occur unless there is oxygen present. Like I said, I have used pure water for many years in all of my vehicles and have never had any kind of problem.

Check the prices before you buy a premixed antifreeze, there is a good chance that buying the concentrate will only cost like 5 bucks more on many brands, but you will get twice as much actual coolant with the concentrate.
