We got our well going last Sat., but many thousands in Houston and else where with busted pipes. There is NO PVC pipe and few fittings anywhere. We were lucky with just one outside pipe busted. And yes it was insulated adams apple to asshole too, but there is no such thing down here a for a frost free hydrant.
Luckily Sleepy Joe brought a truck load of blankets on his trip down other day, but then again it was 70 degress. Go figure???
