by the numbers
Ohio's unique plumbing challenges

First frost typically lands around October 4
Seasonal timing
With December averaging 14F at night and November already down to 23F, a shared riser has usually been running cold for some time before the first failure.

On a single shared heater, the unit further along the run draws last and cools fastest, so the top floor feels a shortage that the ground floor never sees. Sediment in an ageing tank makes the gap wider.
It can. An empty apartment with the heat turned down leaves the party wall cold on both faces, and the shared line inside it freezes and splits where the water sits still. The break may only show downstairs once the ice thaws and pressure returns.
The December average low is 14F, with November already averaging 23F overnight. That is a long enough cold stretch that a shared line in an unheated hallway has no chance to warm back up during the day.
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 4F here, and the hallway is usually the coldest heated space in the building.
