[QUOTE="KDM, post: 250624, member: 314"] A friend of mine had a similar, but much less complicated freeze up with his castle and he bought some of that heavy duty black plastic and covered his castle then put the heat on the inside as well as the outside of his castle inside the plastic. It freed his castle in a couple days, but it took some propane to get the job done. He left a wide enough gap at the base of the plastic to allow a guy with a hammer and chisel to get around the base and he slowly chipped the ice out and melted his way to freeing it up. He mentioned that the ice he chipped out would fill in with melt water from from the inside, would freeze again, and then he would chip that out. In his words it was a GIANT PITA, but it worked. Now he's so gunshy about leaving his castle out that he almost puts his house on stilts. Good Luck, I hope you can get the thing out without any wreckage. [/QUOTE]
