    Pretty sure it was in this thread somewhere. Basically someone said buy https://www.amazon.com/FLIR-One-Thermal-Imager-For/dp/B0728C7KND and use it to look for unexpected temp differentials to identify leaks.

    I used heat tape + old towels + plastic bags + duct tape to seal it all up. Worked well.

    Yeah. I checked for leaks now when I turned the water on after I bled the system for air, and plan on doing it later today again. Just turn everything off and go see if the triangle on the meter is rotating.

    Supposedly we now have water back in the neighborhood, but with the kids down and it being dark there is no way I'm turning that shit back on right now. If we have leaks they can wait until tomorrow morning when I can actually see them.

    I just recaulked the tubs, so I’m sure the water will get turned on any minute now.

    I prefer pack it in pack it out only apply in places where there isn’t indoor plumbing.

    Nope. My goal is to avoid shitting in a bag. Trash day isn’t until Tuesday, so we’ll see if we make it.

    Currently don’t have water and doing my morning routine of collecting snow. Now I’m wondering what the fuck do we do when we don’t have snow to melt to flush the toilets.

    There is a post on next door saying Wednesday or Thursday for us in SW austin. Hoping it’s the usual next door bullshit.

    That sucks. Sorry to hear

    Exterior or interior mounted water heater? If interior in your garage you’re probably ok to give it a shot when the house warms up. Exterior i would hairdryer the exposed water lines for a bit before I tried it.

    Our CSA veggie box got canceled for tomorrow unfortunately. Sucks, it’s been nice to not fight the grocery store as they’ve been consistent with eggs and veggies the entire year through Covid and everything. Guess I’ll have to hit the store tomorrow along with everyone else in austin

    Anyone else expecting a spike in cases here in a few weeks? People are going to hit the bars hard after this bullshit. Hoping it’s the younger crowd so the hospital and death numbers keep going down.

    I’m thinking that snow on top of ice weighted limbs is going to fuck some trees. This sucks.

    We are on the other side of the neighborhood from y’all I think. We just lost water pressure this morning, so I just turned it off at the main. Not sure how often we should check it.
