What it doesn't show
It records the air outside, not the building.
A compilation of public records has limits. Here they are before you buy.
- It's outdoor air at the station, not the temperature inside the building.
- It doesn't show whether the heat was on. Insurers often ask for utility or thermostat records for that.
- It doesn't say a pipe froze, or why.

Questions
Common questions.
Which date should I enter?
The day you found the burst pipe. The report covers that day and the seven days before it.
Why does it matter if the house was empty?
Many policies require reasonable care to keep the heat on or drain the system, so insurers look closely at vacant homes. Check your policy's wording.
What temperature freezes a pipe?
It depends on insulation and exposure, so the report gives the hours at two levels, 32°F and 20°F, rather than a verdict.
