Water Main Break Repaired

With all the cold and snowy weather this winter, water pipes have been breaking on a regular basis.  We were not immune to this as following the latest snow storm, the 8" cast iron fire suppression line cracked right inside the cinder block wall where the water meters and shutoffs are by the parking lot.  The water ran for a good 24 hours until we could isolate the pipe and United Water could figure out the problem.  Here you can see the company repairing the pipe which was about 6' down.
We are much more prepared if this were to happen again.
