Where water hides in Yampa

Found on a return visit or after a cold night, a leak anywhere in Yampa reaches an independent contractor who works the area on one call. About a third of Yampa's homes burn wood for heat, and more than a quarter of its houses were built before 1940.

Age of the homes

Just 24.3 percent of the homes in Yampa are newer than 1989, with the median dating to 1976, the era that decided where these buildings' pipes run, including any that pass through unheated space. An old house heated by a stove depends on someone being there to feed it, and in winter a long day out or a trip away is enough for the fire to go out.

Freeze and thaw

A pipe in Yampa faces freezing nights 7 months of the year, down to a normal 7.2-degree low in January, and a split usually leaks on the thaw rather than the cold night itself; April carries 1.82 of the 16.94 inches in a normal year, both figures recorded at YAMPA, 0.3 miles away. November's normal low is already 17 degrees, so an empty house here is deep in freezing weather weeks before the calendar says winter.

Failures that go unseen here

  • Wood heat in about a third of homes, which stops once the fire burns down during a long absence
  • Houses built before 1940, more than a quarter of the town, with plumbing along cold outside walls
  • Propane heat in close to a third more, where a delivery delayed by snow leaves the house without heat

Frequently asked questions

How should a wood-heated Yampa house be protected during a long day away?

With a backup heat source that keeps the house above freezing on its own, especially in older houses with plumbing on outside walls. A stove loaded in the morning may be out by afternoon. For trips of more than a day, draining the lines is the safer choice.

When do frozen pipes in Yampa usually show up?

Often in spring, when a line that split during the winter finally thaws and starts to leak. April brings heavy snow here, and the thaw after it is when many owners discover damage from months earlier, especially in buildings used only part of the year.

What is the risk for propane-heated homes in Yampa?

Running out when deliveries are delayed by snow. A tank that empties in a cold week stops the furnace and leaves the whole house cooling. Keeping the tank well above empty through the winter and arranging automatic delivery are the usual protections.
