HOW TO REDUCE THE CHANCE OF HAVING FREEZING PIPES
- If you are going away in winter it is best to have someone check up on your home.
- Maintain a temperature of at least 55 degrees in the home.
- Open your cabinet doors so hot air circulates.
- Keep the doors to your rooms open.
- Close gargage doors so that cold air does not get into your home.
- Purchase a small electric heater in the event you need warm air to unfreeze pipes.
- Check that there are not holes in your foundation allowing cold air in.
- Remove drop ceiling tiles so warm air circulates in your cellar.
