A few yrs ago...a lot of yrs ago, I bought a house at Van Horn...had three stories, built into the side of a hill. We had on heck of a winter storm..my water froze, for 10 days. I came home from work one night..heard water running...down the stairs and into my den.. I literally had to sweep the water out the door...took hrs! Luckily the house was stone and cement..no carpet..ruined some furniture and cabinets....talk about a mess!! 
It ruin 10 boxes of books when it happen to me. |

howdy y'all. woke up this morning to no electric and frozen water pipes. the power comes and goes. i finally caught a news report that texas is under brown outs. they purposely shut power down here so that other places can get power. if they didn't do that, then some places would lose power totally. seems the energy has two plants under construction so power supply is down. i got water to some parts of the house. funny thing is that two days ago i tried to drain my water heater and there was still a lot of air in the pipes. i think i've got some iced and some air filled, hope none of them bust

I never lost power and was fortunate enough to get my pipes thawed out after having to blow my pipes 
Heck I even put a small heater under the house for a bit as well. I do hope you get the water going again and none of them burst.. |
