Winterize Your Water Pipes Now


A water pipe can burst from a winter freeze and can be a nightmare to clean up.

Prevent plumbing freezes before it gets too cold outside.

Before freezing nights hit, make certain that the water to your hose bibs is shut off inside your house (via a turnoff valve), and that the lines are drained.

Drain all garden hoses.

Insulate exposed plumbing pipes.

If you go on vacation, leave the heat on, set to at least 55 degrees.
