Freezing temperatures can cause water in your pipes to freeze and expand, leading to cracks or bursts.
To prevent this, insulate exposed water & drain pipes in areas like:
Basements
Attics
Crawl spaces
Use foam pipe insulation or heat tape for effective protection.
Additionally, consider:
Sealing gaps around windows and doors to reduce cold drafts near plumbing fixtures.

Outdoor faucets and hose bibs are particularly vulnerable to freezing
*Disconnect all garden hoses and store them indoors.
*Shut off the water supply to outdoor faucets using the inside valve
*Open the exterior valve to allow any remaining water to drain out
* Cover exposed faucet with insulated faucet box
This ensures there’s no standing water to freeze and damage your plumbing. Cover and insulate all exposed piping and faucets.
Winter weather puts extra strain on your water heater, as it works harder to provide hot water.
Have a professional winterize your water heater by:
*Checking for sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank, which can reduce efficiency
*Flush the tank if needed
*Ensure the thermostat is set to a safe and efficient temperature—around 120°F (49°C).
*For older water heaters, consider adding an insulating blanket to minimize heat loss.

Opening cabinets under your sinks allows the warm air to circulate around the exposed plumbing.
Make sure rooms that share walls with plumbing pipes are heated this will aid in keeping pipes from freezing.

Clogged gutters and downspouts can lead to ice dams and cause roof leaks.

Keep your thermostat set to at least 68*F if pets are home

Protect your plumbing from winter damage with simple steps like insulation, draining outdoor faucets, and maintaining your water heater to avoid costly repairs.
Leave Faucets Dripping During Extreme Cold
During particularly cold nights, leave a small drip of water running from faucets connected to vulnerable pipes. Moving water is less likely to freeze, and the dripping can relieve pressure in case ice begins to form in the pipes. *CAUTION* Make sure you insulate and heat any exposed drain lines. Dripping water can cause ice dams to form and clog your drains.
Know Where Your Main Water Shut-Off Valve Is
In the event of a pipe burst, shutting off the water quickly can minimize damage. Locate your home’s main water shut-off valve before winter sets in, and ensure it’s easy to access. Test it to ensure it works smoothly in an emergency.
