Good old -9 below zero to start the day. :eekk: :dejection:

Supposed to warm up sometime this week again.:biggrin:

Weird day of jobs too.

I know I need both vans to keep up today at some point, just don't know if I should get them both out of their warm beds early....
:neutral:

Here we go! :rockon:

Hold down the Alt key while you type 248 on the numeric keypad (the numbers across the top of the keyboard won't work).

It also works with Alt 0176, but the 2-4-8 progression is easier for me to remember.....

Mac user says thanks. 28° in Ann Arbor.

Hey Mark, put a quick connect fitting at the top of your water tank sight gauge so you can preheat your pressure hoses without wasting water plus you add a little hot water to your fresh.

I honestly rarely even heat a hose up or keep water running until below -30 degrees. Well, might heat up a hose briefly before running into a place or pulling it up to a 2nd or 3rd story :)

Cleaning went pretty well today.

All jobs definetly had their own little quirks, and the cold just adds to them.

Haven't added up the total for the day, but hey...

We survived and even got home on time for a change.

Cleaning around the Christmas tree

Adrienne LatimerMark - my coworker hired a company in St. Cloud for before Thanksgiving. They left her door WIDE OPEN the entire time they cleaned! I told her about your seal-a-door and she couldn't believe how ripped off she was!

    Adrienne LatimerI don't know the name. I forgot - she lives in the burbs, not St. Cloud. I was irritated for her - having to sit in a cold house and wait for them to be done!
Guess the Seal-A-Door is making an impression. :)

@hogjowl Marty wanted to see some Butler videos I think....LOL :stir:

And here was a video we did while cleaning in -9 degrees below zero.

Actually door was not open back there as we had our Seal-A-Door in place, but....

We were still producing good heat.

125 feet of hose on (75 ' of 2.5 inch, 50'of 2 inch)

Prochem Titanium with 12 flow (six .02 jets, Greenglide Hybrid and check valve extenders)

over 240 at the van yet....:rockon:
