COLD Weather coming

[bigwhite]

I have a Alumaweld with an 350 Hamilton pump etc. Closed cooling system with antifreeze.

Right now I have kicker fuel tank removed as well as the main tank that vents to the outside.

My question is with the cold weather coming in, is a Regular light bulb inside the doghouse enough?
What are the other options?

I have the same motor and pump, Yes I use a 60 watt bulb and drain my pitcocks below the exhaust manafolds. Some years I may drain my sand trap but I am fishing in the am.

i drain my manifolds and also drain the hose that goes from the heat exchanger to the pump, it has a valve to open at the low part of the hose to let all the water out this emptys the fresh water in the heat exchanger , also i take the hose off the washdown pump and drain it to, my sand trap has a valve on the bottom of it and i open that and the water in it drains over board.

Is this safe? Fire hazard?
