[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the temps we had, OP, there was never any risk to pipes unless you lived in a poorly-built house with pipes running along exterior walls. [/quote] It's a cultural thing in DC that people think they live in a warm place. So plumbers do things like running pipes in exterior walls, most contractors think insulation is bull. I'm from southern New England, it doesn't really get any colder there than in DC, but people think of themselves as Yankees and they take preparation for winter seriously. No one would ever dream of putting pipes in an exterior wall there. [/quote]
