Here are some tips for the weather we have coming in the next couple of days. Remember the 4 P's......People, plants, pipes and pets.

1. If it is extremely cold outside, keep one or two faucets running slowly at all times. Water moving through the your pipes will not settle in one place and freeze.

2. The pipes that freeze are often located near an outside wall or a window, so be sure to direct warm air to any colder areas of your home. Open cabinets doors 5o help get warm air under the sink

3. If your kitchen sink is on an outside wall (it usually is), be sure to leave cabinet doors open to allow warm air into the cabinet. Your kitchen faucet is usually a good faucet to leave on during extremely cold weather.

4. Be sure to disconnect your hose from the outside faucet. If you leave your hose connected, water is not able to drain out of your hose bib and will likely freeze and damage your faucet.

6.. Seal leaks that allow cold air into your home where pipes are located. Look for air leaks around and in electrical wiring/outlets, dryer vents, and pipes. Use caulk or insulation to keep the cold out. With severe cold, even a tiny opening can let in enough cold air to cause a pipe to freeze.

If you still have concerns about your system, call Ski's Plumbing to have them to come to your home and help prevent your pipes from freezing. Ski's is available and happy to answer your questions.

If you are experiencing low water pressure, your pipes could be partially frozen. Continue to allow your faucets to drip and slightly increase the flow rate to keep the water moving through the system.
If you turn on your faucet and have no water, your pipes could be frozen. Here are some tips to help thaw them if they are frozen.

📍If you turn on a faucet and only a trickle comes out, suspect a frozen pipe. Likely places for frozen pipes include against exterior walls or where your water service enters your home through the foundation.
📍Keep the faucet open. As you treat the frozen pipe and the frozen area begins to melt, water will begin to flow through the frozen area. Running water through the pipe will help melt ice in the pipe.
📍Apply heat to the section of pipe using an electric heating pad wrapped around the pipe, an electric hair dryer, a portable space heater (kept away from flammable materials), or by wrapping pipes with towels soaked in hot water. Do not use a blowtorch, kerosene or propane heater, charcoal stove, or other open flame device.
📍Apply heat until full water pressure is restored. If you are unable to locate the frozen area, if the frozen area is not accessible, or if you can not thaw the pipe, call a licensed plumber.
📍Check all other faucets in your home to find out if you have additional frozen pipes. If one pipe freezes, others may freeze, too.
