I'm in the countryside but have city water. The only exposed pipe I have is outside where the garden hose links up. It's actually funny (..kinda) because a few hours after I posted the original question, that pipe burst! But it was no big deal, it didn't run long, and my uncle fixed it. I just have no way to wash the car at home now (not a tremendous loss)
