Frozen pipes are a concern every winter. Here are some ways to prevent pipes from freezing in your home or business.
Insulate
It’s important to properly insulate attics, basements and crawl spaces.
Seal
Seal any cracks or openings around windows and doors to prevent cold air from seeping in.
Heat
Keep the heat on, even if you will be away from home.
Let it Drip
If pipes are exposed to the cold, keep water running at a trickle.
Open Cabinets
For plumbing on exterior walls, keep cabinet doors open to allow heat around the pipes.
