How to Prevent Frozen Pipes This Winter

Frozen pipes can cause a lot of damage in a short amount of time if they burst. By simply keeping closet or cabinet doors open in areas where pipes run through the walls, you can help prevent freezing. Open cabinet doors promote air circulation, keeping the pipes warm. You can learn about other preventative measures by watching this video.

 

Pipes in garages or crawlspaces should be insulated. Additional measures like heat tape can warm up the pipes directly when several days of freezing or below-freezing temperatures occur.

    Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately, I saw it a little bit too late. Do you know of any place where I could get sewer services in Colorado Springs?

    Plumbing can be defined as the skilled trade which involves installation and repair of water, gas, and waste-disposal systems. A plumber may also have expertise in heating and cooling systems.
