We were doing fine last week on bottled propane- because some dumbass forgot to check the big tank outside- until they started rolling blackouts.
We had enough through rotations of the bottles and refilling them that the tank top heaters kept the rooms the were in warm.
The water pump froze up when they shut off power.
After the first thaw, I fixed the broken fitting going into the pressure tank.
And we had water for us and the horses.
Sometime after, we noticed A LOT of air purging the lines.... more than just normal air working it's way out.
Since everything is soaking through where the water comes into the house at the lower 1/2 bath- I'm betting (hoping) that it's leaking where the hose bib froze solid.
I'll be able to go in through the outside wall and save fixing the drywall right behind the commode.
You can see the water soaking through the 3/4 70 year old plywood.
