So we had some nice days well above freezing here and used the outdoor garden hose to top up the hot tub.
Stupidly, I didn't drain the hose, I tried turning it on yesterday and there was a quick burst of water out at the connection between the hose and spigot.
I've taken the following steps:
-Used hot water to thaw the connection and removed the hose.
-Put the hose in the hot tub to melt the frozen water within the hose.
-Inspected the spigot, which was not frozen, turned it on and water immediately began to flow.
-Drained the hose, reattached to spigot.
Questions:
Am I in the clear for any potential frozen pipes?
Anything else I should do?
