Hi guys I just needed some clarification.

We closed our pool and put the spa ice away on our heat pump (recommended by the pool store, we dont have shop vac)

Instruction was pour spa ice away (antifreeze) on the inlet until I see the liquid comes out on the outlet then put tje expandable plug.

But what I did differently is I poured Ice way in the inlet of the heatpump I waited for it to come out on the outlet then put in the expansion plug on the outlet BUT I also added more antifreeze before putting the expansion plug on the inlet.

So I added more when it was already plugged in the outlet. So more liquid on the pipe inside.

Is there a reason why we cant pour the anti freeze when its already plugged?

Did I created issue/problem on my thermopump? Or is it okay? Thank you
 
I am not exactly sure what you are referring to, but why wouldn't you just blow the water out entirely? That is how heaters are winterized around here.
