Yes, make sure it's non-flammable.

j/k

Use a 50/50 mix of distilled water and green standard antifreeze.

Just make sure you get ethlyne glycol(green stuff) and not propelene glycol. The two dont mix well. A 50/50 mix works well for all climates. If your down south you can gennerally get away with a little more water and still be safe.
