Later on, we discuss what measures can be taken to protect your water pipes, hoses and outside spigots, water heater (tank or tankless), whole home generators, and more!

This hour, Paul and Courtney continue fielding questions from our listeners about if and how, if you choose to, drain your pipes and water heaters to protect them during the freeze ahead of us as well as the advantage of draining your pipes instead of simply letting water run, if propane in a tank for a whole home generator can freeze, and much more!
