Hmmm. Thanks. It's about 3 or 4 feet. I was thinking that there might be enough turbulence in the system as a whole so that the water in this section will slowly diffuse and circulate... I also drain the pipes rather frequently when we're away in winter, so the standing water will be flushed out then.
