I hope you have better access to that line than your kitchen sink's line that keeps freezing. Good luck on that. What a headache!
We switched to a reinforced pex type line on the the one that kept freezing and finally burst a few weeks ago. No problem since. We do have heat tape on it, but the tape was on when it burst, too.
He does meet our needs doesn't He? Wow, you have been busy with those water problems...thankfully the weather will get nicer and the problem will be taken care of:>)
Oh jeesh! Busted pipes are no fun. Thats why we put in a Manablock system. If one pipe goes....we can shut off just that pipe. The rest of the house will have water. Well, of course, unless its the main pipe! GOD IS good!! HE knows just when to give us what we NEED....not want. So glad your were able to get that pipe fixed.
I respect anyone who can play the fiddle. A friend taught me to play a Christmas song on his violin and it was so difficult. I'm not musically inclined, so there's that, lol. Good luck to your dh!!!
