Winterize Your Home And Prevent Water Damage

Winterizing your pipes is crucial to prevent freezing and potential bursts. Here are some practical steps to safeguard your home from bursting pipes during the cold months:

Insulate Your Pipes:
- Keep your pipes snug by insulating them. Use foam rubber or fiberglass sleeves to wrap around exterior pipes and those in uninsulated areas. This can help maintain the water temperature above freezing and causing the pipes to burst.
Turn Off Outdoor Faucets:
- Since you won’t be using outdoor faucets during winter, turn off the external water supply. Locate the isolation valves leading to the outdoor water lines (usually in your basement or crawl space). Drain the outside faucets and remove hoses.
Clear Gutters and Drains:
- Remove debris from gutters and drains to allow water to flow freely. Lingering water can freeze and block pipes, potentially causing damage. If not drained properly the water could turn into ice and become too heavy for your gutters to hold.
Keep the Heating On:
- Maintain a consistent indoor temperature by keeping your heating system on. The warm temperature also warms the pipes.
Let Closed-In Pipes Breathe:
- Open cabinet doors under sinks to allow warm air from your home to reach pipes located there. This simple yet not well-known step can make a big difference.
Check Your Attic and Basement:
- Inspect these areas for any exposed pipes. Insulate them to protect against freezing. You can also use exterior faucet covers for outdoor faucets.

Remember, a little preparation goes a long way in avoiding emergency repairs and costly damage due to frozen and burst pipes. Stay warm and keep the house dry.
