    Did you check your fittings and swivels on the reel? That is where I had problems with freezing once. The plug on the bottom of the pump is usually one used for oil drain. Water coming out of it would indicate that the seals failed and water is now getting into the gear box. Time for a new pump. I had a similar experience (not from freezing) when the pump just imploded upon itself. Unbolted the head and everything inside was a tangled mess. Rod

    Jack Kramer deserves an award. He is a natural MC. The incipient PW Industry should recognize his ability and contributions. Same goes for you Thad. Also, Beth & Rod must be recognized as the foremost leader in online education and content. In addition, Tom and Barbara Vogel of ACR products deserve mucho kudos. Along with Everret Abrams, they put roundtables on the map many years ago. They have pulled many contractors feet out of the fire for many years, and continue to do so. I would not be in business without their help and support. Carlos Gonzalez deserves a much needed recognition for his spunk, accumen, and downright efforts in trying to steer this service business to another level. Last, but not least, Peirce Fitchette of Ready Seal stains and Jake Clark of Armstrong-Clark stains have supported this small service "industry" to the hilt. To one and all, you are friends. Valuable friends.

    All good points. I'll add beer, plenty of smokes if one craves tobacco and is iced/snowed in, and an adequate suppy of firewood. De-ice is helpful so you, your spouse, or dog does not fall on the friggin' steps and driveway. If UPS has a delivery, demand that they plow the driveway.
