East Douglas sits in Massachusetts's continental-climate region — a humid continental climate — hot, humid summers and cold, snowy winters, with sharp freeze-thaw swings between seasons. That's hard on a home's plumbing: freeze-thaw cycles that crack pipe and split fittings and deep winter cold that freezes exposed and uninsulated supply lines all accelerate wear on pipes, fittings, and water heaters, so the failures we see most here are frozen exterior spigots and hose bibs and corroded service lines from road salt and groundwater. We spec pipe, fittings, and fixtures for local conditions, not a generic catalog spec.
