Preventing Frozen Pipes This Winter The winter months can wreak havoc on your plumbing if you’re not prepared. When temperatures dip below freezing, pipes that run through uninsulated exterior walls or in unheated areas like attics and crawl spaces are at risk for freezing. Once pipes freeze, the ice buildup inside can cause pipes to burst, leading to costly water damage. Thankfully, frozen pipe prevention is easy with the help of your experienced local plumbers. Simple solutions like insulating exposed pipes, sealing air leaks around plumbing, disconnecting and draining exterior hoses, and maintaining a constant drip in faucets connected to pipes that tend to freeze can all help keep your plumbing safe this winter.
