What temp do you set you thermostat on to keep the pipes from freezing I know it has to be above 32 , but is there an optimum setting .
.Make sure that any water pipes in the basement, near the foundation walls stay warm enough to not freeze. Like hose bib supply lines that go out through the side of the house.
You also have to keep in mind P traps in the drains.I designed mine to drain.
Yet another advantage of new construction.
Will I have to do is turn off and drain the pump, open the faucets and open one valve to drain everything.
Yep, I keep a couple gal of Rv antifreeze in the shed.You also have to keep in mind P traps in the drains.
