North Hills climate
by the numbers
North Hills's unique plumbing challenges
About 75 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 Roslyn Estates
First frost typically lands around November 13
Seasonal timing
With December averaging 32F at night and November already down to 39F, a shared riser has usually been running cold for some time before the first failure.

On a shared stack, often. A blockage in a common waste line backs up into the lowest fixture in the building, which is generally the ground-floor unit even when the cause is two floors up. Venting problems travel the same way.
That is water hammer, and it is louder in a shared wall because the pipe is strapped to framing that both units hear. Loose straps and missing arrestors on a long branch run make it worse, and the shock is hard on old joints.
Only if there are isolation valves on each branch. Where a building was divided without adding them, the main has to close and both units go without water for the duration, which is worth knowing before scheduling anything.
The insulation around any shared run, the valves on each unit's branch, and whatever heat source keeps the common hallway above freezing. January averages a low of 27F here, and the hallway is usually the coldest heated space in the building.
