How long water runs before anyone knows: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.
Exposure in Limon
Water damage restoration across Limon runs through independent local contractors, for homes lived in all year or left empty between visits. Limon's normal nights fall below freezing from October through April, a long season for a town on the open eastern plains.
When these homes were built
With a median build year of 1981 and about three quarters of its homes (73.8 percent) older than 1990, most of the plumbing in Limon was laid out in the early 1980s, by that era's idea of where a pipe was safe from the cold. Nearly a fifth of its houses were built before 1940, and in those the plumbing often runs through crawl spaces and along the walls that take the wind.
When the cold arrives
The freeze season in Limon runs 7 months of the year, with December lows at a normal 9.9 degrees, long enough for a building left heated low to lose its heat before the next visit; of 17.11 inches in a normal year, 2.8 fall in July, the wettest month, rain recorded at LIMON 0.3 W 0.5 miles away and temperatures at LIMON WSMO 5.5 miles away. Normal lows are under 20 degrees from November through February, four months in which an empty house can freeze in a single night.
What gives out in Limon

Frequently asked questions
How long is the freezing season in Limon?
Normal lows sit below freezing from October through April, so any building without heat for a day or two in those months is at risk. That is a long stretch for a plains town, and it means a house left empty in the fall should be treated as exposed until spring, not only during the coldest weeks.
What should be done with a vacant house in Limon over the winter?
Either keep it heated and checked, or shut off the water and drain the lines. A house that is not for sale or rent often has no one visiting it, and a split line can run for weeks. Draining is the safer choice when nobody can look inside regularly.
Why do older Limon houses freeze more easily?
Many were built before 1940 and had plumbing added later, often through crawl spaces or along outside walls exposed to the wind. Those runs cool faster than lines inside heated rooms. Keeping crawl-space vents closed in winter and heat on in rooms with exposed plumbing protects most of them.

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