Otego climate
by the numbers
Otego's unique plumbing challenges
About 155 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 Oneonta
First frost typically lands around October 18
Seasonal timing
September's average low of 50 degrees is a fair warning: the roughly 155 nights below freezing that follow are what find the shallow spots in a buried line.

Upstream of the house. Either the buried service has restricted or a valve at the meter isn't fully open, and both get ruled out before anyone opens a wall.
Typically the property owner's, from the curb stop inward. That surprises people, since the pipe is under public ground for part of its length.
