 Meh. I've never run across a poly pump OR a nylon fill valve (that was disconnected) that was cracked because of freezing. And, for that matter, ice actually contracts every so slightly as it gets colder. The expansion properties of water freezing into ice does its worst damage right at 32 degrees F.
The only pumps that could really be damaged by freezing are those made out of aluminum or pot metal. | ||

I'm sure Mark remembers a Waterloo visit, where we found an early 90's Maytag behind Menards, in the middle of winter. After letting it thaw, the pump and valve were fine.
I have seen water valves split, but never a Maytag poly pump. This would be a great washer for someone in the Twin Cities area! Ben | ||
