True or false? http://www.frozen-pipes.com/keeping-pipes-from-freezing/someone-said-your-water-pipes-wont-freeze-in-a-new-house-true-or-false http://www.frozen-pipes.com/keeping-pipes-from-freezing/someone-said-your-water-pipes-wont-freeze-in-a-new-house-true-or-false#comments Mon, 21 Dec 2009 09:01:59 +0000 admin http://www.frozen-pipes.com/keeping-pipes-from-freezing/someone-said-your-water-pipes-wont-freeze-in-a-new-house-true-or-false The temp is supposed to go down to 17 degrees tonite. It won’t last more than the night no doubt. Usually I just run a small steady stream of water overnight and that works fine, keeps the pipes from freezing.  A family member said, “I heard that pipes won’t freeze in a new house.” HUH?

Pipes are pipes and water freezes. Keep doing what you are doing and they won’t freeze. A builder’s advice.
