I don't think that's a hard enough freeze to mess up my system right now.

Do you have a system with the main system feed valve above ground?...if so, you might want to drain that. All my stuff is underground, except the heads themselves.

Yes it comes off a spigot on my house. That's why I always get paranoid about it.

Meatloaf....Nice.

Hell, don't drain it just for one night...now. Just wrap some insulation around it, or a shitty old blanket or something.

Winterize your system in a few weeks from now I think.

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. My sprinkler "system" is pretty bootleg...

I'm cutting my breaker valve off this year so I can redo the pipes and just use sharkbites to put it back together. Then I'll just pull it every year. Last year, even though I drained and blew it out, one of the ball cock valves had water trapped inside and split open. I'm tired of fuckn with it every year.

I need to rebuild/replace the shutoff and drain valve anyway and the fucktards put the shutoff up in the joist where you can't work on it. I'll move the valve back to the feed by the WH and drain it all the way back.
