Time to buy insulation for your pipes.

or alternatively totally change the air flow of your house to heat your attic.

I'd go with pipes insulation.
Yeah.  The problem is my ladder isn't quite high enough for me to safely get completely into the attic.  So I'm probably going to make a run to Home Depot to get a taller ladder and pipe insulation.

Well, we shouldn't have too many bugs this summer :)
I actually saw an article someplace that the severe cold might cause a massive die-off of the emerald ash borer. :cool:

No indoor access? Never seen that around here.

No, it's indoor, but it's just a hatch in the ceiling of my master walk-in closet.

That's not very safe, the ladder goes on the chair.

Ah. So really small ladder.

I was confuse by your use of ladder. To me a ladder is only this :



This is a Stepladder/scaffolding

Yeah, I was talking about the latter ladder. :sleep:

Pipes just unfroze.  No signs of any leakage yet.

Good luck Cal.

Anchorage hit 48 for high yesterday. No chance of frozen pipes in that.
