Unwatched buildings in Windsor

Found on a return visit or after a cold night, a leak in Highland Hills or elsewhere in Windsor reaches an independent contractor who works the area on one call. The median home in Windsor dates to 2009, and about 250 units at a time sit vacant, waiting for a tenant.

What the homes date from

Of the homes in Windsor, 86 percent are newer than 1989, with the median dating to 2009, the era that decided where these buildings' pipes run, including any that pass through unheated space. Newer houses keep most of their plumbing inside the heat, so the exposed lines here are the ones that run to the garage, the outdoor faucets and the irrigation system.

The months to watch

A pipe in Windsor faces freezing nights 5 months of the year, down to a normal 15.4-degree low in January, and a split usually leaks on the thaw rather than the cold night itself; May carries 2.98 of the 15.85 inches in a normal year, rain recorded 2.8 miles away and temperatures at FT COLLINS 4 E 8.8 miles away. Nights drop from a normal 34.4 degrees in October to 23.8 in November, so irrigation lines need draining before that month turns.

The usual failures here

  • Irrigation systems and outdoor faucets that freeze if not drained before November
  • An attached garage, often the one unheated room with a water line in a house built since 2000
  • Rentals between tenants, around 250 at a time, with the heat set low

Frequently asked questions

When should a Windsor homeowner blow out the irrigation system?

Before November, when normal nights start falling below freezing. A sprinkler line or backflow valve left full of water can crack on the first hard freeze, and the leak often shows up only when the system is turned on in spring.

Where are the exposed pipes in a newer Windsor house?

Mostly in the garage and at the outdoor faucets, since newer houses keep other lines inside heated space. Keeping the garage door closed on cold nights and disconnecting hoses in the fall covers most of the risk.

How should a Windsor rental be kept between tenants in winter?

With the heat on at a moderate setting and someone checking inside every few days. A vacant unit with the thermostat turned down is the most common setting for a frozen line in January.

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