In "Dry Divide" or "Horse of a Different Color" by Ralph Moody, in one of them he speaks of the thresher operater banking the fire and waiting the next morning for it to get back up to operational temperature.

You must remember too that a quantity of water stores a lot of BTUs and it would take a long time for the water in a tanker or boiler to freeze. The piping however would present a problem.

If any of you enjoy reading books I think that you would enjoy most or all of Ralph Moody"s works.
