Talking about cold I have a question for the braintrust.
My Sister, who lives outside of Austin, TX called me this am asking for advise. It was 16 degrees there and two of her outside faucets were frozen. Their house is on a slab so there is no way to get to the pipes. Any suggestion from the hive on how to best protect their faucets? She didn’t have any hoses attached (thank God) and there is no shut off for that line and is worried going forward.
Thanks!

^^^^^^^^^^^^ Home depot sells faucet covers. Amazon has them as well. Frost free faucets are another option. |
