… keeps fountains running during a hard freeze? A Caesars Entertainment executive, who else? Never mind that pipes have been bursting all over the valley (including one at LVA HQ) and that Lake Tahoe casinos have experienced “severe water and flood damage to the hotel and gambling areas” from ruptures, wreaking havoc upon two Caesars-owned casinos, one Tropicana Entertainment joint and a Columbia Sussex slot house. No, some doofus at Caesars Palace just had to keep the fountains going, even when they froze two days in a row. It kills Gary Loveman to do anything remotely resembling maintenance but Caesars sure chose to live dangerously with this fountain caper. Wouldn’t you love to be a fly on the wall when the repair bill lands on his desk?

Hate to tell you this but the best thing to do to keep pipes from freezing is to keep the water running. Hence why the fountains stay going. Moving water does not freeze. Usually pipes in walls have standing water since the water only moves when the tap is open. Before you blast the idiot Loveman (I agree he is an idiot!), make sure you educate yourself as to what you are taking about. Loveman is actually right about running the fountains. Oh and I am a pool and spa professional from the northest who regually deals with freezing temps and water.
Jason, I’m not sufficiently educated but I know when I’ve been schooled. My apologies to you and other S&G readers.
