Keep Your Pipes Cozy This Fall and Winter

Before the first frost hits, take these simple steps to protect your pipes from freezing and bursting — a common winter worry that can lead to costly damage:

• Insulate Pipes: Wrap exposed pipes with foam insulation or heat tape, especially those in unheated spaces like basements, attics, and crawl spaces.

• Seal Drafts: Check windows, doors, and walls for cracks or gaps where chilly air can sneak in, and seal them up tight.

• Maintain Warmth: Keep your thermostat steady — even if you’re away, set it no lower than 55°F to keep pipes from freezing.

• Let Faucets Drip: A slow drip keeps water moving and helps prevent freezing.

• Open Cabinet Doors: Warm air circulation under sinks can protect plumbing on exterior walls.

• Disconnect Garden Hoses: Drain and remove hoses and shut off outdoor faucets to prevent pipe damage.

• Use Space Heaters: For especially cold spots, a safe space heater can add extra warmth.

• Keep Garage Doors Closed: If pipes run through your garage, keeping doors closed helps retain heat.

• Consider Heating Cables: For vulnerable pipes, electric heating cables provide extra protection when temperatures drop.

Taking these precautions now will help ensure a cozy, worry-free season without unexpected repairs.
