Running tubing in cold weather (winter)

[Johnjenner]

Question on running tubing in cold weather(winter). Should you hang the tubing at outside temp or try to keep it warm until hanging. My thought would be that if you hung it at a warmer temp it would tighten up when it got colder and possibly not sag as much when the outside temp got warmer but I may be wrong. What do you think.

Thanks

We hang in cold weather and I put my drop T's on the far side of the tree from the mainline. Then during the season I will walk the woods looking for leaks I will pull the lateral tight at the mainline fitting. My mainline is tight as can be and the laterals are also so the entire system is able to expand and take up some slack.

Walking the woods looking for leaks also is a great time to fine tune the entire system. Nothing feels better than looking down at your Iphone and seeing the Vac levels are up to the max levels the tanks are getting full and the pump amps are normal.
