Hello ZBARC, Anyone planning on Field Day at the clubhouse should be aware that the water system is presently inoperative.
Mark KC0BRC, Bruce N0XNH and Al KA0VIA installed a new toilet on Monday of this week. After the toilet installation and before we could test the new toilet additional water system problems surfaced. Pun intended! The water filter housing was cracked. See photo. A new filter housing was found on-site and installed on the filter unit. The pump ran A-ok BUT! As the pump ran then water flowed across the floor beneath the radio operating position. The pump was quickly turned off and the water was quickly vacuumed up with the club's wet/dry vac. The PVC pipe break is located somewhere behind the radio desks and behind the folding wall mounted table top. Permanently removing the unused wall mounted folding table top might be helpful for future projects. Something to consider. See photo.
Due to time constraints we did not begin the PVC pipe repair project this past Monday.
Several members will need to coordinate a time to meet at the club house for the following tasks. 1. Move all the radio equipment to the other side of the club house. 2. Move the radio desks/tables away for the wall a considerable distance to create access to the wall behind the operating position. 3. Remove the the folding wall mounted table top to expose the PVC pipe. 4. Inspect and make the necessary repairs. 5. Put it all back in place. FYI, It might be reasonable to consider finishing the wood floor sealing project with all the desks/tables out of the way!
So there it is. We can discuss this project at the next meeting OR we can make the next meeting a work meeting to begin the project.
Feel free to use this groups io message to post your thoughts and ideas on executing the project.
