A neighbor shared this neat "kluge":
Drain the tank with a short (~3-foot) hose. When no more water drips out, raise the hose up fully and pour a half-cup of RV antifreeze down the hose. That is enough antifreeze to dilute
safely any remaining water. Lowering the hose (to re-use the antifreeze) is optional.
