Well, the tubing is finally all down and in it's final resting place. Hopefully when they pour the concrete those guys will keep that in mind. It would be easy to knock something loose. We have been walking all over it, and so far nothing has broken, so I think it will be ok.
Too tired to go get the camera for any pictures. We worked another 12 hour day. Dawn to way after dusk for me. We had the tubing down by about 2 PM, and then we decided to place the electrical floor boxes while we were both there to discuss it. We actually aren't doing those, the electrician is, but we wanted to mark them out exactly where we would like them, as on the plans it was pretty much a guess. I put marking paint in those locations, and tomorrow I will put landscaping flags there to make them more visible. The slab is getting pretty full of "things" and it's easy to get lost out there, as I am sure a couple tools that have gone missing are also probably in their "final resting place".... Ha!
I stayed on the lot in the dark tonight and finished up the electrical feeds... Future stuff like pool pumps, septic system, landscape lights, sprinkler system solenoid lines, etc. I also ran another entrance for the water line, as I didn't like the one that the plumber put in (not where I would have put it, and not where I pointed the day we discussed it... hmmmm). His spot comes in right under the breaker panels in the garage... Mine would come into a corner and then feed straight up into a spot where I can put a whole house filter.
Then headed over to my buddies house to help him with getting his water spigots covered for our upcoming "deep freeze"... Stop it you Yanks... You can keep that cold air up there, because we don't want it. I think back to about mid July and ponder if we could just average the two extreme temperatures. I think San Diego does that...
Tomorrow I plan on hooking all the tubing into copper manifolds. These are just cheapo manifolds that will only be used for pressure testing. Tonight after I cleaned out the truck again, I organized all the tools I will need for that task, and even loaded up my air compressor and a "bubble" tank for use tomorrow.
I will try to take pictures, but they are talking ice and sleet. I may have to rent a generator to run the compressor. That will require a run into town, which I hate...
OK, that's it for tonight...
