I don't know what PEX costs, but PVC with primer and adhesive should be rather affordable. I suggest we repair the leaks with PVC and couplers, and then pay very close attention to prepping for freezing conditions.? It doesn't take long to winterize the water system. I have already donated the pink RV antifreeze which is located just inside the mudroom door. All anyone needs to do is ask for help. I have winterized the system in the past. I also suggest that we get a replacement water filter to catch leaves and sediment outdoors BEFORE it gets to the pump and tank. Craig had already donated one, but it got used to replace the frozen one. The original installation had a filter AFTER the pressure tank and serves little purpose. I'll be there to help.?

Thank you to everyone that chipped in to help at the school house. As of this morning we now have a functional toilet and slop sink for washing up. Again a big thanks goes out to both the Bruce's who came out this morning to finnish up. Now we can get busy with the plans and inside clean up for the August picnic.?

Likely you know you can buy compression fittings that slip together and use transition pieces to go to pvc.
No clamp tools needed .
Lowes.
Just FYI.

As of now three members have shown an interest in showing up this Saturday to:
> disconnect/reconnect and move radio equipment
> move radio desks
> and then repair the broken water line behind the operating position
1. Bruce N0XNH may be available Saturday morning
2. Martin, KA0MEK, is available on Saturday
3. Greg, KF0MSJ, is available Saturday
Please, more volunteers are needed. If the line is not repaired due to lack of interest then what becomes of the picnic and annual elections?
Greg, Martin and Bruce please use this groups io message to post the times that you would like to work on the repairs.
To other member please use this gropus io message to post your interest of showing up to help.
Thank you,

Thank you to everyone that chipped in to help at the school house. As of this morning we now have a functional toilet and slop sink for washing up. Again a big thanks goes out to both the Bruce's who came out this morning to finnish up. Now we can get busy with the plans and inside clean up for the August picnic.?

PVC freezes and breaks.? Well worth the money.
Use Pex which does not.

I don't know what PEX costs, but PVC with primer and adhesive should be rather affordable. I suggest we repair the leaks with PVC and couplers, and then pay very close attention to prepping for freezing conditions.? It doesn't take long
to winterize the water system. I have already donated the pink RV antifreeze which is located just inside the mudroom door. All anyone needs to do is ask for help. I have winterized the system in the past. I also suggest that we get a replacement water filter
to catch leaves and sediment outdoors BEFORE it gets to the pump and tank. Craig had already donated one, but it got used to replace the frozen one. The original installation had a filter AFTER the pressure tank and serves little purpose. I'll be there to
help.?
