Air Compressor Attachment/Adaptor & Questions

[jenmenke]

Tried the tire pump method mentioned a couple years ago for clearing the main drain. No go. Am fairly certain that even if I did initially clear it, water re-entered it when I opened the valve to try again.

I still don't know what the deal is with the fountains or how to blow them out.

Pool people were scheduled for tomorrow and I needed to cancel 24 hours in advance. So, I guess I'll just have to let them come and do it since I'm now inside that window and I can't get it figured out here. The bummer is that I can't even be here to watch them because I'll be out of town.

Maybe next year...

I would still like to see if you can help me answer my questions from a few days ago though. I will help in my understanding, hopefully, for next year.

Sorry to have been off line last night !

I think you're best off having the pool dudes do a complete closing- If we'd had more time, I surely could have talked you through it.

Come about Thanksgiving, I get laid off for the winter - what say we talk about your pool and the piping over the winter? I'll have lots of time to devote to fully understanding your set up and then you'll be empowered to take care of the openings and closings yourself (saving you $$$)

I hope your trip goes well and that you get home safely (it would have been optimal for you to be able to watch what and how they close the pool - but we can still let you know what they've done and how)

Write down your questions about what they did and how they managed it (ask them to leave some sort of report about what they did, since you won't be there, and let us know what was done for the closing )

We are here for you all year!
