Ridgway climate
by the numbers
Ridgway's unique plumbing challenges
About 191 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out
The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Ouray
First frost typically lands around October 5
Seasonal timing
The median first frost falls around October 5, early enough that outdoor drainage and sump discharge lines can ice up before most homeowners have thought about winter at all.

People also ask
Because melt arrives faster than the ground can take it. Frost still in the soil acts like a lid, so water travels sideways along the surface until it finds the lowest opening, which is often a crawlspace vent.
It's the better arrangement. Sharing a circuit with something that trips takes the pump offline silently, and nobody finds out until there is water on the floor.
Once before melt season is the useful minimum. Pouring water into the pit until the float lifts confirms the switch, the check valve and the discharge run in one go.
It depends on inflow and on how high the water has to be lifted, not on the size of the house. A pump chosen only by horsepower often runs too short a cycle and wears out early.
