How can I keep my pipes from freezing during this chilly time of year?
- First, keep home temperatures above 55 degrees.
- Next, inspect these often overlooked areas, especially during lengthy periods of cold weather.
- Homes that are unoccupied for several days at a time can be vulnerable to pipe freezes.
- For added peace of mind in protecting against frozen pipes, you can install automatic water shut-off devices. These devices detect anything from small leaks to burst pipes and turn off your water, preventing any further damage.
If your pipes do freeze, don’t try to thaw them with open flames or electricity.
Provide extra heat and airflow to safely thaw plumbing and of course, call Frost Insurance Agency or Beck Insurance Agency with any questions or concerns.
Keep your pipes happy and stay warm and dry this winter.
