[QUOTE="hunter966, post: 3924583, member: 4952"] On all my wells I pull the well head up about 6’ and take a small drill bit and pit a weep hole in the pipe, plastic pipe is what is in my wells. When the well shuts off the water drains out of the pipe down to that 6’ mark, and so far I’ve never had one to freeze up. I also keep on hand some heat lamp bulbs, never used any heat tape just cause the bulbs are what my folks used. Ya probably already know this, but in your house (s) open up the cabinets and let your water run a small stream on the cold water side. If ya get in a bind with really frigid temps, look for a weed burner and a portable propane tank, handy to have in case something freezes up. [/QUOTE]
