I am in the middle of a job of installing new CPVC. Not a bad job other than the crawl space is like a pond, I can deal with that. The weather conditions are typical of Southern Indiana this time of year, cloudy, cold (actual temp 29-32 degrees). I can cope with even that. My question is, at what actual temperature should I give up on this and wait? Yesterday was perfect, almost 50. The high for today is to reach 36 or so. I am using the Yellow Flow Gurard. What I am NOT wanting to do is once I get everything hooked up and then turn on the water and have to dive back into the lake again to do repairs just because I was in a hurry. I also have a question about water pressure. I live in a small rural town. I am seeing pressures anywhere from the main line in, past their meter, running around 45-65. Needless to say I have been real busy replacing pipe and redoing connections. What should a typical residential water pressure read? Thanks in advance for your help.
I forgot to add that the house is occupied and all heat ducts are run in attic so there is no chance of heating the area with the furnace. I am afraid of using any electrical heating device due to the fact water is EVERYWHERE.
