Prevent Costly Home Pipe Repairs in Cold Weather

Protect Your Homes Pipes During the Winter

Stay ahead of the cold weather and prevent pipes from freezing and bursting with these 6 easy steps.

1. Let water trickle from a faucet on an outside wall during the night.
2. Wrap pipes with UL-approved heat tape.
3. Allow heat to reach pipes beneath sinks near outer walls by opening cabinet doors.
4. Shut off and drain water from pipes leading to outside faucets and cover with insulated bib covers.
5. Set your home's thermostat to 55º F.
6. When away from home, ask someone to check to ensure your home's heat stays on.
