Our place does not have heat, so every winter we are required to turn off the water supply, drain the lines and winterize the systems. In theory, this is a simply task. The application of the theory has not been so easy this year.
We arrived at the cottage and found the pump cracked from freezing. This means that I did not get all of the water drained, and the freezing temperatures cracked the head. We also discovered that the shower cartridge was also a victim of the temperatures. Both of these issues are a result of improper winterization. I did not get the line blown out completely, and I paid the price.
