High school's boiler pipes may need replacement

By Brenda WinterSuperintendent Dave Deragisch told school board members at a recent meeting that the boiler pipes in the high school building may not last until spring.Deragisch said the pipes leading to the boiler leak and will need repairs soon. "It’s summer work, though. We’re going to limp along and hope we get through the winter. If the pipes don’t hold up and a repair job is needed, we’ll have to do something else with school for a couple of days," Deragisch said. The boiler was out of commission for a few days this fall, but fortunately it was during the warmest days of the season.

He said an above-floor pipe cannot be used to fix the problem for safety reasons.
