In the order the failures happen. First, the lines in unheated paths: crawl spaces, exterior walls, garages, and additions get insulation and, where a line has frozen before, heat cable on a thermostat. Second, the exterior water: hoses disconnected and hose bibs drained, because a connected hose holds the water that splits the bib inside the wall. Third, the interior habits for the coldest nights: cabinet doors open on exterior wall sinks, a pencil thin drip on the farthest faucet, and the thermostat held steady rather than set back deep. Fourth, the absence plan: anyone leaving a Greeley home empty in January either shuts the main and drains, or accepts that a burst will run until a human returns. The listed specialty exists across this city's field because the order is skipped every winter, in the same sequence.
