never done that before), and two, it gives it a chance to warm up some so my machine runs a little better with less condensation freezing in the hose.&nbsp; We don&#39;t have that problem with pipes in the ground, but a air hose exposed to the elements is a different story.&nbsp; The temperature in Nampa today isn&#39;t supposed to get above 32 degrees, which won&#39;t be a problem for piping in the ground, but if there is exposed piping that I have to attach my hose to it will most likely be frozen.&nbsp; Galvanized pipe isn&#39;t a problem because I can heat it up with a torch to melt the ice so the air pressure can reach the piping underground, but if it is PVC, I won&#39;t be able to do that.&nbsp; If you haven&#39;t drained your filter or opened your valves as per my suggestion you do, it could also be a problem.&nbsp; Again, not with your system, but with me being able to get air through it.&nbsp; By opening the filter it allows the water to drain out and not freeze in the piping.&nbsp; If I can&#39;t get air to the good stuff under the ground the blowout won&#39;t happen.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMonday I will be making my final sweep through the valley and then shutting down for the season.&nbsp; I believe there to be 8 in Boise and 1 in Eagle.&nbsp; More on that tomorrow.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHere is the route for the day.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Nampa-10.png\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Nampa-10.png\" style=\"width: 755px; height: 561px;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sprinkler blowouts will resume today in Nampa.&nbsp; At the time of this writing there are only 10 left for me to do before I close it down for the season.&nbsp; I have sent off text notifications asking for a response or I would remove them from my list.&nbsp; I will be starting later in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[140],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2687","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sprinkler-blowouts"],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":false,"thumbnail":false,"medium":false,"medium_large":false,"large":false,"1536x1536":false,"2048x2048":false},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Steven Crist","author_link":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/author\/admin\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Sprinkler blowouts will resume today in Nampa.&nbsp; At the time of this writing there are only 10 left for me to do before I close it down for the season.&nbsp; I have sent off text notifications asking for a response or I would remove them from my list.&nbsp; I will be starting later in the&hellip;","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2687"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2687\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2693,"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2687\/revisions\/2693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.treasurevalleyrepairs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
