CHARLIE’S HELPFUL HINT:

As it’s again about time for ice - a few things to think about:
Let’s check out the freeze/weep system. If you have an old style plain thermostat, just turn it up to above ambient temperature.

Thermostat:

For instance, if it’s 60°F do the following:
  • Turn it to 70°F or 80°F
  • Turn the water/freeze on
  • Begin checking each bay individually
  • Adjust each bay’s metering valve
  • Once each bay is flowing properly, reset thermostat to about 36°F
Don’t try to make it good for the coldest night in January. Make it good for a “Fall Mode” - say down to low 20°F. If your system has a Weep Mizer simply unplug it from wall receptacle, to get into weep adjust mode. When finished with check out and adjustments, replug Weep Mizer and run through the program to be sure it’s programmed the way you want it..................... More “winterize” details later.
