Title: Newbie to forum with a question
Post by: tmhfrompa on July 07, 2014, 10:00:41 pm

Sorry if it was extensively covered but I'm new to the forum. What do you do to prevent freezing in an extended power outage in the winter?

Welcome to the forum!   So far in 12 years, I've done nothing.  I've only had one outage that lasted 4 days during times it was below freezing and I left the tub alone to find it still at 90F when the power came back on. I've since bought a generator that if I had to could run the tub by itself for a few hours. If I ran the tub 2 hours, that would raise the temp around 18 degrees and would last for a few extra days.
