Madison climate
by the numbers
Madison's unique plumbing challenges
About 167 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out
The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Colman
First frost typically lands around October 9
Seasonal timing
January averages a high of 25 and a low of 7, so an unoccupied building here can go weeks without the inside temperature getting anywhere near safe for charged pipe.

The water gets shut off at the main and the system drained, and traps get protection so they don't dry or freeze. Leaving the heat on low is not the same thing as winterizing. For a place standing empty until spring, doing it properly is the difference between an easy opening and a gutted basement.
It helps, but it depends on the furnace running and the power staying on, and it does nothing for pipes in an exterior wall or an unheated crawl. Plenty of failures happen in houses that were heated. A shutoff and a drain remove the risk instead of reducing it.
Look and listen before you pressurize anything: open a tap, turn the water on slowly at the main, and watch for the sound of water running when everything is closed. Check the ceiling below any plumbing. Problems around Madison and Salem usually show in the first hour.
For a property that sits empty, a monitored sensor near the heater and the laundry is one of the few ways anyone finds out early. Simple alarms only help if someone is there to hear them. Some setups can close the main automatically.
