    Presoak Hose

    I need to replace my 3/8" plastic Presoak hose, you look at it sideways and it'll break. It's not colored, it's kind of a natural looking plastic. What does everyone recommend?

    Horror story w/ city, after Snowmageddon

    We didn't have any freeze damage. We turned off the water, drained all the systems, blew them all down with air and then pumped RV antifreeze and windshield washer fluid into everything, turned on the gas heater and hoped for the best. We lost about 4 days of revenue.
