Temperatures are projected to drop below freezing this weekend! As we prepare for colder weather, we want to remind everyone to take a few simple precautions to help protect your home and prevent frozen pipes.
Don’t forget to let your faucets drip!
During periods of extreme cold, allowing a slow, steady drip of water can help reduce the risk of pipes freezing.
A few quick tips to protect your plumbing:
• Let faucets drip during periods of extreme cold, especially those served by exposed pipes.
• Keep cabinet doors open under sinks, particularly those located along exterior walls, to allow warmer air to circulate.
• Know where your home’s main water shut-off valve is located in case of an emergency.
• Disconnect outdoor hoses and cover exposed outdoor faucets.
A little preparation now can help prevent costly plumbing issues later!
Stay warm and stay safe, Cave Spring!
