Plumbing conditions in Missouri
Missouri has hot, humid summers, cold winters and strong spring storms. Many older brick homes with basements in St. Louis and Kansas City.
Missouri gets real cold snaps most winters. They are short, which is exactly why homeowners get caught out: hose bibs left connected, pipes along outside walls and uninsulated crawl-space lines are the usual failures.
Much of Missouri has hard water. Scale builds up in water heaters and fixtures over time, which shows up as popping noises in the tank, weak shower flow and crusty aerators.

- Frozen and burst pipes in winter
