Slow sand filter update

It is now November 6, 2017. This summer was unusually hot and dry. Many forest fires in this state. Horrific air pollution from the fires. All electrical connections were disconnected for safety reasons. No recirculation of water through the filters for 4 months. Now the rains have returned and the filters are working in spite of being inactive for 4 months.

It looks like this will be another unusually cold winter. The first snow was this past week. Below freezing temps now at night.  More later.
