A return visit, a wet floor, and one question: how long has this been running?

How long water runs before anyone knows: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.

Unwatched buildings in Avondale

From the middle of Avondale to its edge, a building left unwatched through a freeze is one call from an independent restoration contractor. Every one of Avondale's 137 homes is a detached house on natural gas, and only five are rented.

What the homes date from

In Avondale, every home predates 1990 and the median one was built in 1961; a building's age decides where its water lines run and how much of them sits outside the heat. With the median house dating to 1961 and about thirty of them older than 1940, the question in a cold snap is less the building than whether its owner is home to hear the first drip.

The months to watch

Cold reaches furthest into an empty building in January, when the normal low in Avondale is 15.4 degrees, and 5 months of the year dip below freezing at night; the wettest month is August, with 2.42 of 12.32 inches, rain recorded at AVONDALE 1 N 1.4 miles away and temperatures at PUEBLO MEM AP 9 miles away. January swings from a normal 15.4 at night to 48.4 by afternoon, a daily freeze and thaw that works on any line left in a cold crawl space.

The usual failures here

  • Owner-occupied houses from around 1961 whose one furnace is the only thing keeping the crawl space above freezing
  • About thirty houses older than 1940, where a line fitted after construction may run through the coldest corner
  • An August storm season that can put water against a foundation just as easily as a January freeze can split a line

Frequently asked questions

What should an Avondale owner arrange before a January trip?

A thermostat left at a moderate setting and a neighbor who will step inside every few days. Almost every house here is owner-occupied, so no landlord is going to check. A split line found after a week has usually soaked the floor and the wall beside it.

Can a summer storm in Avondale do the same damage as a burst pipe?

It can. August is the wettest month here, and a heavy storm can push water through a window well or along a foundation. Clearing gutters and checking that the ground slopes away from the house before summer limits it.

Does gas heat keep an Avondale house safe in a power cut?

Not reliably. Most gas furnaces need electricity for the igniter and blower, so a winter outage stops the heat even with gas at the meter. If the power stays off overnight in January, shutting the main valve and opening a low faucet protects the lines.

If water is still running, find the main shutoff or, on a well, switch off the pump at its breaker before calling.
