Half-baked Half-pipe Sidelines Tech

Aw maaaaan!

Our schedule is kind of in disarray this week all because Casey and Chris decided to go off and enjoy the snow last weekend. Well, that in and of itself isn't the issue. We grudgingly worked around their absence Friday and Monday (a four-day weekend!). Tom and Alan hustled, and we managed.

The catch came Tuesday when Chris showed up walking a little like Frankenstein. Something about one last jump and a crunched shoulder.

Off to the doctor he went. All day calls to his cell phone went unanswered. It seems his phone stayed behind in Tahoe. Lodged in a snow bank. Somewhere. We hope the vibrations from all our calls didn't cause any avalanches.

The good news is nothing's broken. The hopeful news is that he could be back in a week. The bad news? Chris is 'the skinny one' who does all the crawls, so it's starvation diets for the other guys.

He surfs with sharks, rides dirt bikes and mountain bikes, now this. Couldn't he just stick to plumbing?

Free toilets for Sonoma Valley County Sanitation District customers

The Sonoma County Water Agency's direct install program is in full swing. Low-flow toilets have been flying out the door here at Boden Plumbing. If you have not yet replaced your old-style, water-wasting toilet, now is a real good time to do so.

To qualify for the program, you must be a Sonoma Valley County Sanitation District customer (on public sewer, not private septic) and have a toilet that uses more than 1.6 gallons of water to flush.

The 1.6gpf toilets became standard beginning in the early 1990s. Many older toilets use 3.5 gallons per flush, and some use as many as five gallons each flush. So lots of water can be saved when you change over to a newer toilet.

For more information, or to schedule an on-site evaluation, call us here at the office: 707 996 8683.
