Unwatched buildings in Vona

Found on a return visit or after a cold night, a leak anywhere in Vona reaches an independent contractor who works the area on one call. Roughly one home in seven in Vona is heated from a propane tank, which makes a missed delivery a risk to the whole house.

What the homes date from

In Vona, 83.1 percent of the homes predate 1990 and the median one was built in 1938; a building's age decides where its water lines run and how much of them sits outside the heat. In a town this small and this old, an empty house may have plumbing that was added decades after it was built and a heat supply that depends on the next delivery.

The months to watch

A pipe in Vona faces freezing nights 5 months of the year, down to a normal 15.2-degree low in January, and a split usually leaks on the thaw rather than the cold night itself; August carries 2.7 of the 16.61 inches in a normal year, both figures recorded at SEIBERT, 6.7 miles away. January brings the coldest nights here, and August the most rain, so the house left for a winter trip meets the cold with nothing but its own tank and walls.

The usual failures here

  • Houses built before 1940, about half the town, with water lines in the coldest corners
  • Propane heat in about one home in seven, where a missed delivery lets the house go cold
  • A small town where a vacant house may go weeks without anyone stepping inside

Frequently asked questions

What happens to a Vona house when its propane tank runs out in January?

The furnace stops and every room starts cooling at once, including the ones with water lines on outside walls. In an old house those lines can freeze within a night. A tank kept well above empty, a delivery that does not wait on a phone call, and a neighbor who checks in are the usual protections.

Why are Vona's old houses at risk of frozen pipes?

Many were built before 1940, when plumbing was added afterward wherever it fit. Lines along outside walls, through porches or under floors with little insulation lose heat first. Keeping those rooms warm, and the crawl space closed, prevents most freezes.

How can an empty house in Vona be protected over winter?

Either keep it heated with someone checking inside regularly, or shut off the water and drain the lines. In a town this small there may be no one passing close enough to notice water, so draining is the surer choice for a long absence.
