I agree. I've mentioned the concept to Mom, and see if she allows that.
Tell her if she doesn't. the dam water will freeze along the dam eves and you'll have a bunch of dam ice and when the dam ice melts, the dam water will ruin her dam ceilings and that would be a dam mess her son would have to fix.
