I'd shove a garden hose into the sand, and let it overflow into the back yard for a day or 2.
Better safe than worry about an ammonia spike.

+2 after 2 hrs sub zero temp your getting die off regardless so just rinse with whatever water you have......using a fish net thats fine and a garden hose has worked well numerous times for me in the past
your not wanting "live sand" your wanting completey clean lifeless sand as you want to add it to an already living system
what ever you use will evenyually become " live"
