easy,part time, TAX FREE $$$$
 
Depends on where you live, I work for a irrigation distributer ( toro, rainbird ) and thought I'd try and make some extra $ this fall by doing sprinkler blowouts. Some of our contractors were overwelmed with people calling to get their systems turned off for the winter early so at 35-45 for systems up to 7 zones and 5.00 each add. zone you can make some $$ for spending up to 30 mins a home just by hooking up a compressure to a backflow and blowing out the lines. I did 32 homes over this weekend, just around my own neighborhood and made 1500.00 in less than 12 hours
of work and have close to 30 more through out the week. I just dont know what else to say except if you have some spare time and a comp. check into it :y

damn 650.00 a pool, I'm gonna have to check into that, most people here with pools run heaters in the winter and drain about every 2-3 years

hey nog, you got any sprinker valves? 3/4" or 1" will work, as long as they have the elec solenoid up top.

yea im pretty sure thats the going residential rate.. i do alot of commercial stuff.. yes alot of homeowners hear heat there pool aswell,but alot of them stiill wintwerize them.. you always leave some water in the bottom in case of a faulty hydrostat because if you drain them all the way you may as well grab a paddle because you have a big boat..lol
