We installed a Weep Mizer this year and results have been great!

Our Wash is in NC. It gets cold here. But many of our winter days are above freezing even though the nights are below freezing. With our regular weep, we set the temperature at 40. So when the air temp hit 39, we were running weep 24/7. Our water/sewer is so high that our weep water was literally eating all of our profits in the peak winter months.

The weep-mizer has allowed us to incrementally increase water flow as the temperature drops. I understand why this would not be as applicable in colder (NE and Mid-West regions), but for all of you in the SE/lower mid Atlantic, this thing works and has saved us about 60% so far in water/sewer this year vs last.
 
We’ve been using the Dixmor Weepmizer since about 1985 or so. They’ve saved us ton of money on water and sewer costs. We have ours set to come on at 34 deg., which seems about the right temperature for us in the Pacific Northwest. I hope you used a diaphragm type solenoid valve, if you didn’t your asking for trouble.
 
Randy turned me on to an Asco Red Hat solenoid that stays open if power is cut to the solenoid; good safety feature to protect your expensive pumps.

We swapped out our dema for the asco today and it works perfectly.
