- vorpalhex 5y agoExactly. Eastern Ontario gets wind and ice and cold EVERY SINGLE YEAR. Every one. If you don't winterize, you don't work. It is a cost. In Texas, basically up until last year with that blackout, there was no downside to not winterizing. Why? Most of our pipes aren't even deep enough to handle a hard freeze - because we don't usually get hard freezes.
- freeone3000 5y agoThere's been a deep freeze every year for two years now. It might be worth considering there's going to be another one next year.
- vorpalhex 5y agoWe did, which is why we had no blackouts this year.
