up in AK. we used to use a simple light bulb covered with a cardboard box which then covered the frozen valve, connection,pipe, etc. to help keep things thawed and moving. The slight heat given off by the bulb generally did the trick! Good luck with the mission!!!!!!!!!!!

Great idea! I shared the solution with the crew engineers and they are checking with mission support to get approval to try it out. As for now we're hauling all of our water in by hand ...
