Thank you in advance.

The water lines in TV are only buried 12” compared to, say, Michigan where they are buried 4’ so they don’t freeze in the winter. The ground temperature is warmer at 12”.

Nice silver lining, you dont have to spend any energy to thaw your water pipes.

LMAO it's pretty obvious. welcome to Florida we are in the south. No matter where in this state that you are the cold isn't cold like up north. cold at best is luke warm pretty easy to figure out why. IT'S HOT and the water table is only a few feet under us.

Add ice to warm water to make it cold!:doh::doh::shocked::clap2:

Funny. All this time I’ve been adding warm water to the ice to melt it. Hmmm…

Personally, I love my "cold" showers in the summertime.
Seriously, pipes in the ground are warmed by the sun. The water will get cold in the winter. Get used to it down here in the South.

The best one was the lady that thought she shared a mailbox, because she could see people inside....LOL

Yes you’re right, plus the pipes that come in your house aren’t down in the ground far enough. Just my opinion!

How about the lady who kept walking from her house to the mailbox because her computer was telling her she had mail.
