winterizing lines to the clothes washer??

We winterized our BH yesterday but in the night I thought of the hookup for the clothes washer. We do not, have not and will not be using a clothes washer.

We blew out the lines and then we did the antifreeze through the pump as always but we did not do anything with the hot or cold lines that go to the clothes washer.

Did we miss something?

I attached a garden hose to the hot and cold water hook up for the washer and run antifreeze thru the lines.

I done the winterizing yesterday and blew out those lines like the rest, and ran antifreeze through them. We don't have a washer attached.

Does this

Does this then mean that I need to blow all the lines out again and go get another 3 gallons of antifreeze to replace what I just blew out?

I wouldn't worry about blowing out the water at this point. If you attach a garden hose to the laundry valves (be sure to do both) and pump in antifreeze until it comes out the hose end (use a short hose:eek:) and you'll be fine.
