They are telling us to keep our thermostat at 68 or less. I have mine set to 67.

Are you running your water

I’m not sure exactly but pretty big. Maybe I’d have to measure it hahah

Im guessing about 6”-8”? Thats the smallest I can find. I thought you may have found a smaller one, like a 3” one.

yes when it gets this cold here (negative windchills) we tend to leave th cabinet doors open and the faucets trickling......sometimes with a small space heater. of course even that didn’t help when a pipe burst in the concrete under the kitchen sink in 2014. DS1 couldn’t get the shutoff valve to work and we had over an inch of water in the house before we could get home from the office and get the water company to shut it off at the street I was sweeping it out the back door and it was flash-freezing on the deck.

That sounds about right! Cause I don’t think it’s a full foot across cause my bigger bowl for the chickens is near there I think. I wish I found a smaller one! That would be ideal for the quail but alas no luck LOL

Thought it was face down angels?

That sucks. Mine is running now but around 10ish I'm draining the feed line and I have a tarp over my pump and tank with a heater. Our biggest problem is the 1/8" hose going from the pump to the pressure switch. The water in that little hose freezes quick and bam water doesn't kick on causing the rest to freeze. If I can keep that little hose from freezing I have a good chance of making it through
Another FYI check your little hose

Yes. How are you holding up? Power on? Water still on?
