Studor, I deal with this every year. The line will freeze where it is exposed. I use a halogen light to thaw the line. (assuming you can open the well) Lower the light down the well and shine it on the pitless adapter and line from about a 1' distance. Cover the well with an old sleeping bag and tarp. Make sure the light it's self has enough room to cool so that it does not burn up. Then wait. Takes me a few hours for my line. A regular light bulb would also work, although I would place that within an inch of the line.
Where the heck in eastern Ontario are you that your line is frozen today? The ice just went out on our lake.
