Prepare for Winter
- Insulate: Install insulation sleeves or wrap them around exposed pipes to prevent cold air from reaching them. It helps prevent the water from freezing and causing the pipe to burst.
- Open cabinet doors: Allow warm air to circulate to prevent pipes from freezing.
- Keep the faucet running: Prevent freezing by allowing faucets with no exposed pipes to drip, maintaining a continuous water flow.
- Disconnect outdoor hoses: Disconnect any garden hoses that lead to faucets or sprinklers to prevent water freezing and damaging the pipes.
- Clear snow away from pipes: Regularly clear snow from around the foundation and near the exterior walls to prevent ice accumulation.
