We cleaned up 53 blowouts yesterday in Meridian 83646, Star, and Kuna. We are making excellent time, even with the colder temperatures coming at night. While on that subject……
If you have a backflow above ground use the winterizing steps I have put on our site, or throw a blanket or even a bucket over the top of it. If you have a backflow underground, you have nothing to worry about until usually mid-December. Ground temperature is still quite warm. 50 degrees this morning. The ground temperature down where most sprinkler system piping is won’t reach freezing until mid-December or even later. Last year on December 8 it was 35 degrees……
Jesse will be working in Caldwell today and tomorrow. I am not going to post a street list or route, because since they will all be completed by tomorrow there is no need. The 83605 will be completed today unless there is a serious slowdown because of system issues. There are only 18 to do in the 83605, and Jesse could do that with his hands tied behind his back. Frankly, I don’t know where he gets all his energy. I have nicknamed him “Terminator.” 🙂
Jacob will be working in Garden City today, and will hopefully get about a third of the area done. Another day will be scheduled.

I will be working in the 83709 which I still haven’t finished the route on yet. It is hard to do when there are over 200 to choose from in the area. I will be concentrating on the area of the 83709 that have backflow preventers. That normally means the areas off of Overland road and Maple Grove and east toward Rand Street. I will post a street list also when I finish it first thing this morning.
My List: (Doesn’t look like much, but there are several houses on some of the listed streets)
S Red Shine Ave
Cross Fox dr
S Allante Pl
N Yonkers Lane
S Sawtooth Ave
W Hummel Dr
W Marvin St.
Lion
S Rand St
W Grunder Drive
Right now I am faceplanting into my computer so it wouldn’t make a lot of sense to continue the work now with too many opportunities to make mistakes. It’s almost 2 a.m. now. I will be back at it at 7 a.m. Sayonara!
I’m trying to contact you through your website but it only gives me an error message. How can I contact you?
Text or E-mail is the best option
I assume you’re going to get back to 83706 at some point. I don’t think the first pass through there was completed, and we signed up long ago! Thanks!
Hey Dave, I haven’t forgotten you. If you are concerned about the rental on Euclid just go over and close the main, open the drain, turn each test cock at an angle, and each valve at an angle and it will drain the PVB exposed to the elements.
What is the current status for 83642?
Status is we still have several to do there but we will get to them
When do you think you will getting over to the Old Nampa area?
We start in Nampa in a few days
I see you were in Garden City Thursday and will finish another day. I just sent a question regarding that. No need to respond to the previous reply. Hopefully will be on your route soon.
Looks like we were there today. Glad we got you taken care of.
