So far,just my small connector hose from tank to pump,not completley as i drain off the water before i finish for the day,as for everything else i am lucky enough to be able to take everything else in for the night,it takes an extra 15 mins in a morning to load up,so not too bad,Gaz

Well apart from my extremities turning blue I've mostly been ok, though yesterday my pole hose froze up and I had to put it on the dashvoard of the van to thaw it out.
I know have a little 2 killowatt fan heater with a frost stat. Last night was colder than the one before and everything was fine today.

I've been told that by this time next month we could be in for -18 degrees :o :'( :o

So, something to look forward to then ;D

Nothing yet.  I've got quite a large water storage for my small WFP system, so I've been keeping my RO/DI in at night.

I can probably make enough pure water during the weekend to last me a full week.

I'm bringing my pole in to; just in case!
