Into the woods by 7:15 to start the wash cycles on the R/O.  We have to thoroughly wash the membrane for storage until next year.  The tank heater helps, but it still takes time to circulate the wash water through until it reaches 113 degrees.  And we have to do multiple wash cycles.   It will run until 10:00 or 11:00 PM tonight.   Fortunately it has temperature sensors and will shut it self off when it reaches 113 degrees.

A snow squall last night starting around 8:00 PM and lasting about two hours left us with white snow cover.   By morning the temperature rose and snow turned to rain and everything melted.  It rained through the morning.   But we avoided the rain this year: cleaned the evaporator yesterday and R/O cleaning takes place in doors.

Two days to complete everything.
