Winter Isn't Over Yet: How to Protect Plumbing from Late-Season Freezes
As winter lingers in the Pacific Northwest, homeowners in Anacortes and surrounding areas must remain vigilant in protecting their plumbing from late-season freezes.LaVergne's Plumbing & Heating is providing expert advice to help residents prevent frozen pipes, costly repairs, and potential water damage as temperatures continue to fluctuate.
Even as spring approaches, unexpected cold snaps can cause pipes to freeze and burst, leading to significant damage and costly repairs. Taking proactive steps now can help homeowners safeguard their plumbing and ensure a trouble-free transition into warmer weather.
Essential Tips to Prevent Frozen Pipes:
1. Insulate Exposed Pipes
Pipes in unheated areas, such as basements, crawl spaces, and garages, are most vulnerable to freezing. Wrapping pipes with insulation or heat tape can help retain warmth and prevent ice buildup.
2. Keep a Slow Drip Running
Allowing a small trickle of water to flow from faucets, especially at night, relieves pressure in the pipes and reduces the risk of freezing.
3. Maintain Indoor Heating
Keeping the thermostat set to a consistent temperature, even when away from home, helps prevent pipes from dropping to freezing temperatures.
4. Open Cabinet Doors
For plumbing located under sinks, opening cabinet doors allows warm air to circulate around the pipes, reducing the risk of freezing.
5. Disconnect and Drain Outdoor Hoses
Outdoor hose bibs and sprinkler systems should be shut off and drained to prevent freezing water from expanding and causing damage.
6. Seal Drafts and Leaks
Cold air seeping into the home can increase the risk of frozen pipes. Sealing gaps around doors, windows, and foundation openings can help maintain a stable indoor temperature.
7. Know How to Shut Off the Water
In the event of a frozen or burst pipe, shutting off the main water supply quickly can prevent extensive damage. Homeowners should familiarize themselves with their shut-off valve location.
Late-season freezes can take homeowners by surprise, but with proper preparation, costly plumbing emergencies can be avoided. LaVergne's Plumbing & Heating is committed to helping residents in Anacortes and surrounding areas keep their homes safe and comfortable throughout the winter season.
