Please take steps to protect your water pipes.
To protect water pipes from freezing, you can follow these steps:
-
Insulate pipes: Ensure they are well-insulated, especially in attics and crawl spaces.
-
Keep the heat on: Set your home’s temperature to at least 55°F (13°C), even when you’re away.
-
Let faucets drip: Allowing a slight, steady drip from faucets can prevent freezing.
-
Seal cracks and openings: Especially where pipes run from inside to outside the home.
-
Disconnect outdoor hose
