You might not want to wait until spring

Arch is totally under tarp for winter, I'm thinking any water that may be in there will expand up rather than out with freezing. The arches are fairly heavy steel so would take a lot for ice to split.

Old Man Winter ...........................

..................... wouldn't even think twice about splitting your SS arch if the temp. got much below 32 deg. F. Seen much heavier pipe than that (in gas plants) split like a banana in our northers climes.

The question I've got to ask here is ......... where are the little 1/8" drains for this tubing :confused:.
