    I’m surprised anything falls at those temps, must be all the moisture getting freeze-dried out of the air.

    The hot water in my kitchen keeps freezing off, even with the special heater installed under the sink to keep the pipes warm.

      Homie, can I bitch about it real quick? Sorry, I’m going to do it anyways cause I’m stuck inside!

      So I live in one of those “Sears’ catalog” wood cabins. I’m from the equator originally, so solid water in the environment is something completely foreign to me. But my place has had frozen/busted pipes twice since I’ve moved in. I went full 'tism super Saiyan and researched shit for a few days. And for once it actually got me fucking results!!!

      I got these line heaters meant to be wrapped around the pipes, but if you stretch them out by only going around the pipe once and then wrap them in cheap cast fabric, you can save so much money!
