is always a good idea to leave a tap dripping if there is two days of below-freezing
temperatures. If the pipes freeze with running water in them, they gradually
freeze in layers without any pressure… if they freeze with the water
contained in them with the taps turned off, the pipes can burst. It would be a
good idea to cut off the main in case a pipe has busted so you don’t have
a large water bill if it leaks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>We ought to leave the heater on
or insulate the pipes. Also, drain and stow the outside hoses.<br>

Just a heads up, the pipes are currently frozen at the shop and running water
is not available.<br>
