week 19 update


This week was mostly taken up with fixing water main pipes that have broken, the major ones were on the 1st,11th and 18th with the colder weather the ground contracts more putting pressure on the old pipe system thus in some cases where there was a small crack it breaks, we usually try to do several at a time as the cost of getting in the excavator and hire of it is very costly so if a leak is not too bad and out of the way of play we will often let it go until we have three such areas to fix
On the new automatic side we have gone through the system and fixed all the faults in the decoders so it is operating properly and we have just got three leaks on that side one on the 5th one on the 6th and the one on the 8th we have got the parts on the way to attend those problems so all should be good in a week or two....for a while anyway
till next time keep swinging pete
