inflation, plumbing, Graingers

Went over to the greenhouse at 8:30 to cap a plumbing leak on bench 10. The pipe broke from the solenoid. While there I noticed the inflation blower was not working. Took a look and it was hot to touch and not spinning. Unplugged it and ordered a new blower as well as a Hot Dawg Fanjet fan belt spare. The current fan belt is 6 weeks old and seems to be holding up but I don't have a backup. I studied the old spreadsheets for a septic pump and then bit the bullet and spent $850 to get the larger high head pump. I will need to rewire the panel to deliver 220 volts to the septic tank. Libbie went to Graingers with me to pick up the stuff. She stayed home while I went to the greenhouse and installed the inflation blower. Installation went without a problem. Dinner was the Trader Joe's Calzone. After dinner I went over to Home Depot and picked up the 2 inch pipe fittings for the septic pump.
