The blowout app

[silverfox9142]

I saw an app that someone had developed so, during blowout, all we had to do is turn on and off each zone from our phone while blowing out the lines. It required the Rachio API. I can’t seem to locate it so I’m asking for help in locating it. Thanks.

Hey @silverfox9142!

I think this is what you are referring to…

Winterizinator is back!

For those looking for an easier way to blow out their systems in the winter or maintenance throughout the year, I’ve revived the Winterizinator.com site that lets you turn on/off zones at random (Thanks to Varun Mehta for the original site years ago). Just enter your API Access Key available in the app.rachio.com user menu and click Go. You’ll see all your zones and tap the button to turn on a zone, click another zone to switch to that zone or turn all zones off. I hope to keep the site activ…

Instructions to find your API key is included in that post. My only concern is I am not sure if anyone has tried it since our bigger software release that happened early this season. @schaeferb, any chance you know if it is still functioning? I can always give it a go

Thanks, Mckynzee. I tried it and it still works. Cool.

Woohoo! No problem.

Thanks for posting! Getting closer here in St Louis.

When we select a zone we get a message from Rachio saying that zone will run for 60 minutes.

After about 30 seconds my compressor is out of air.
Is there any way to change the duration to 30 seconds?

Thanks!
