How long water runs before anyone knows: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.
Exposure in Matheson
Water damage restoration across Matheson runs through independent local contractors, for homes lived in all year or left empty between visits. Matheson has no gas service to speak of: its few homes are heated by propane or electricity, and most predate 1940.
When these homes were built
None of the homes in Matheson is newer than 1989, with the median dating to 1938, the era that decided where these buildings' pipes run, including any that pass through unheated space. An old house on propane or electric heat has one source of warmth, and when a tank runs dry or a storm takes the power, nothing takes over.
When the cold arrives
Nights in Matheson normally fall below freezing 7 months of the year, deepest in December at 9.9 degrees, the stretch when a line in unheated space can freeze with nobody there to notice; August is the wettest month at 2.72 of 14.97 inches a year, both figures recorded at LIMON WSMO, 14.1 miles away. October's normal low is 29.3 degrees, so freezing weather here starts in early fall, long before the coldest December nights.
What gives out in Matheson
- Propane heat in most homes, where a tank that runs dry leaves the house without heat
- Electric heat in the rest, which stops in any winter power outage
- Houses from before 1940, the larger share of the town, whose plumbing was fitted in where it would go

Frequently asked questions
With no gas line, what keeps a Matheson house from freezing?
Its propane tank or its electric service, and nothing else. When a tank empties or a storm cuts power, the heat stops. A backup heater that runs on a different fuel, or draining the lines before a long absence, covers the gap.
How early in the season should a Matheson house be ready for freezing weather?
By October. Normal nights fall below freezing from October into April here, and the coldest arrive in December. Filling the propane tank, closing crawl-space vents and disconnecting hoses in early fall prepares an old house for the whole season. Checking the heat before the first cold night avoids surprises.
What should a Matheson homeowner do during a winter power outage?
Keep doors closed, let faucets on outside walls drip if there is water pressure, and watch the temperature in rooms with plumbing. If the outage stretches on and the house is cooling, shutting the water off at the main and draining the lowest 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.
