Yankee Rowing Boathousekeeping Reminder: Please shut off and drain the hose

 

A reminder: Please remember to shut off and drain the boathouse hose after using it. (Today it was left on full force by whomever used it last.) The reason for doing this is that in the hot weather and daytime sun the hose can burst because the water in the hose heats up and expands. (Unfortunately, this happens once or twice a season.)

Thanks very much.

Best,
Ernie
 

To add to Ernie’s plea to remember to bleed the hose: if you aren’t sure how it should be done, please ask someone! Each time I have use the hose, someone has neglected to bleed it.
Thanks!
