Municipal water lines in cold climates - history of technology?

[QUOTE="Torbert, post: 6228988, member: 662466"] Here in Fairbanks, Alaska, notices are given out every fall warning of the discolored water that will issue from taps when the circulating pumps are turned on for the winter. The water does not run cloudy when turned off in the spring, only in the fall when the stagnant water in the feedlines from the pumps to the mainlines get mixed in. Permafrost has been measured to over 300 m so deeper burial was not the answer. In the early days water was delivered or fetched for the most part. [/QUOTE]
