How long water runs before anyone knows: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.
Exposure in Lyons
Water damage restoration across Lyons runs through independent local contractors, for homes lived in all year or left empty between visits. About one Lyons house in six was built before 1940, in a small town set where the foothills meet the plains.
When these homes were built
The median home in Lyons was built in 2000, and 33.2 percent of them were already standing in 1990; that age is a fair guide to how much of a building's water system runs where nobody looks between visits. Those older houses carry most of the town's exposed plumbing, run along walls that were standing long before anyone put pipes inside them.
When the cold arrives
Nights in Lyons normally fall below freezing 5 months of the year, deepest in January at 14.4 degrees, the stretch when a line in unheated space can freeze with nobody there to notice; May is the wettest month at 3.09 of 17.32 inches a year, rain recorded at LYONS 0.3 NNE 0.2 miles away and temperatures 10.7 miles away. April's normal low of 32.3 degrees is barely above freezing, so the last frosts come in spring, weeks after the year's coldest nights.
What gives out in Lyons
- Houses built before 1940, about one in six, with plumbing added along old outside walls
- Duplexes and small multi-unit buildings, about one home in nine, where an empty unit's leak runs into the next one
- Homes left over the winter holidays, the coldest stretch of the year, with the heat turned down

Frequently asked questions
What makes the oldest Lyons houses harder to keep from freezing?
Their plumbing came long after their walls. Lines added to houses built before 1940 often follow outside walls or pass through spaces the furnace barely reaches. Keeping those rooms warm in January, and knowing where the shutoff is, does most of the work.
Should a Lyons house be drained for a two-week winter trip?
Not necessarily, if someone will check inside every few days and the heat stays at a moderate setting. For an older house with exposed lines, or if nobody can check on it, shutting the water off at the main is the safer choice for any absence that long.
How can a Lyons duplex owner protect the unit next door?
By keeping their own unit heated while away and letting the neighbor know how to reach them. Water from a split line moves through the shared wall, so the neighbor is usually the first to know, and a quick call can stop it early.

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