Preventing Frozen Pipes

If you take the necessary steps to prevent your pipes from freezing, you can avoid pipe bursts from occurring in your property. Use the following tips to prevent frozen pipes:

  • Turn your faucets on and let a slow drip run from them. This constant water movement prevents the water from freezing within the pipes.
  • Let pipes beneath sinks heat up by opening the cabinet doors underneath them.
  • Have any pipes located in vulnerable areas insulated using electrical tape or pipe insulation.
  • In areas where pipes are not insulated, use a space heater, but make sure you use the space heater safely.
  • During the winter, turn off the outside water supply, and store garden hoses inside.

Thawing Frozen Pipes

Poor water pressure and pipes with ice or frost are signs that a pipe has likely frozen. Use the following tips to thaw the frozen pipe:

  • Spot which line has the frozen pipe.
  • Locate the frozen section by tracing the pipe line.
  • Look out for pipes that have ice, frost, or bulges.
  • Use a heat lamp or hair dryer on the pipe to thaw it, but never use any flame, including a blowtorch, to thaw it.
  • If you need to, remove drywall so you can reach the frozen pipe.
  • Find the faucet at the end of the affected pipe line and turn it on to a trickle.

Considering the severe damage burst pipes can cause to your property, you should do what you can to prevent your pipes from freezing.
