[quote=Anonymous]I know that you're supposed to leave a trickle of water coming out the faucet to keep the pipes from freezing on nights like tonight, but I'm wondering how to do this with our shower. We have a single control (instead of separate handles for hot and cold water). Last week we left a trickle of water coming out, but it was only the cold water and the hot water pipe froze. But to keep any hot water flowing we have to turn the handle a lot farther and have a lot more water flowing. Now I'm worried that it will freeze again tonight. Any suggestions? I'm leery of leaving a whole lot of water gushing out all night both because of the waste and the fact that this tub has clogged on occasion. Don't want to risk flooding the whole downstairs while we sleep. Thanks.[/quote]
