De-Winterize without Sanitize?

I de-winterized and sanitized a couple weeks ago, thinking we'd be long gone south before now.

However, before we got a chance to head out temps are forecast to fall below freezing (28 degrees) a couple nights.

I winterized again just to be safe.

My de-winterize instructions have sanitize as part of the plan.

How do I skip the sanitize and just flush the anti-freeze?

Assume just hook up to city water, leave the bypass valve to bypass and turn on faucets until clear runs through, and we'll be good to go.

Am I missing something?

    Yes.  If you winterized by putting antifreeze in your plumbing lines via the Nautilus, then simply flushing via city water will rinse everything.  Remember to return your Alde bypass to normal after flushing.
