Checked the Meter and it was very slowly showing usage so I shut it off and my Bud is coming in the morning to see what he can find. "Fangers Crossed"
You can also strap a heating cable along the pipe. Turn it on when freezing is possible. Make sure you use one that's specified for outdoor use and isn't getting too hot. You don't want to melt the pipe.Boots wrote:Pretty shallow Parts if I am seeing it right. You’d like to see it buried at least 6 inches, below what my many plumbers have said is the frost line. You can also insulate it w some closed cell foam tubing they sell at the box store. Cheap insurance.

On the Pipe, I think I'll get my Bud to replace the entire line from the Meter to the House and a lot deeper this time.
