It also supplies the kitchen so this is an area that must be addressed. It’s a copper line and is possible to open up the wall behind the water heater with ease.

Most newscasters here say that this cold was a “generational” event so I’m not really sure this is worth screwing with. Next time, if there is a next time, I know what to do which was to put a small hot air blower aimed at the input pipe. Simple fixes are better.
Could always wrap heat tape around it.

Eavning all before shower n bed. Post jits check in. Had a great night. Back on the mats tomorrow at 5am. Warming up here. No fire needed. I hope Russ n Chris get some relief. I suggest putting vodka in the water lines so they don't freeze. That or fireball.

Still up in the air, Mick. We are really hoping it will open up. Then we have to find out if Paula’s work will force her the quarantine for 2 weeks afterwards.
