How long water runs before anyone knows: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.
Where water hides in Aurora
Found on a return visit or after a cold night, a leak in Traditions, Centretech, and Adonea or elsewhere in Aurora reaches an independent contractor who works the area on one call. About three thousand Aurora homes stand empty and for rent at any time, and the city's freezing nights last into April.
Age of the homes
In Aurora, 60.8 percent of the homes predate 1990 and the median one was built in 1985; a building's age decides where its water lines run and how much of them sits outside the heat. Most of the city was built before 1990, and a rental of that age sitting between tenants in March has its oldest plumbing exposed with the heat turned low and nobody inside.
Freeze and thaw
A pipe in Aurora faces freezing nights 6 months of the year, down to a normal 16.8-degree low in December, and a split usually leaks on the thaw rather than the cold night itself; May carries 2.26 of the 17.54 inches in a normal year, rain recorded at AURORA 2.1 ESE 3.2 miles away and temperatures at CHERRY CREEK DAM 8.3 miles away. The normal low drops from 33.9 degrees in October to 24.3 in November, so the move into freezing weather happens within a single month.
Failures that go unseen here
- Rentals standing empty between tenants, about three thousand at a time, heated low with nobody inside
- Nights below freezing from November into April, six months in which a spring-break departure can still end in a split line
- Some 2,250 mobile homes across the city, their supply lines exposed below the floor

Frequently asked questions
How late in spring can an Aurora pipe still freeze?
Into April. Normal nights fall below freezing from November through April here, so a house left with its heat off for a spring trip can still meet a hard frost. Keeping the thermostat at a moderate setting until nights stay mild covers the whole season.
What should an Aurora property manager do with vacant units in winter?
Keep the heat on at a moderate setting, open cabinet doors under sinks on outside walls, and walk each empty unit every few days during cold weather. A vacant unit gives no warning, and in attached buildings a failure reaches the occupied homes around it.
Which Aurora homes see the most frozen pipes in December?
Those left empty or heated low over the holidays, especially older houses with plumbing along outside walls and in garages. December brings the coldest nights here, and it is also when many homes sit empty for family visits. A neighbor with a key helps.
