Looking out my back deck this week. Record low for December 15th, 19 degrees
It's a very cold week in Seattle this week. It's could be setting a record for this date today. If you don't remove the hoses, and they split, you can always call me next Spring and we can replace your split and leaking hosebibs. Mostly you won't notice the problem until you try to water in the Spring.
In a week like this, days of cold, there will be some pipes that freeze, and you won't really know it until the first day it warms back up.
That's when we see the most problems. The ice plug turns back into fluid water, and out it sprays.
One Winter I fixed a home that had fourteen freeze breaks. None in the crawl space though. The ground kept those pipes warm enough.
Looking out my back deck in the Fall.
