Frozen Pipe Prevention Tips from Denommee Plumbing HVAC & Electric

With the cold lingering this week, take steps to ensure your pipes don’t freeze: Eliminate sources of cold air near pipes by sealing drafty windows and doors and insulating walls and attics. Keep water moving through pipes by turning on the faucet farthest from your main valve to a very small, steady trickle. Keep lines that are in cabinets and vanities warmer by opening the doors to those cabinets to let warm air in. Take time to find water shutoffs in case a pipe bursts. Some tips should you find a pipe has frozen: Do not use open flame devices. Apply heat to the section of pipe using an electric heating pad wrapped around the pipe, an electric hair dryer, a portable space heater or by wrapping pipes with towels soaked in hot water. Be sure to keep the faucet open as you treat a frozen pipe Continue heating until full water pressure is restored.
