[QUOTE="BFE, post: 1667223, member: 28532"] Put a feed sack over your frost free hydrants to keep them from freezing in the extreme cold and wind. This will insulate the standpipe long enough for it to drain out. A length of hose in the exhaust was mentioned earlier as a heat source. That's what I do to thaw frozen water meters for the rural water district I contract with. Two inch suction hose fits perfectly in Chevy exhaust pipe. Turn the water on and the small flow that starts as whatever is frozen starts to thaw will speed the process. Buy starting fluid by the case in the summer. [/QUOTE]
