Keep Your Heat On<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you’re leaving for a while, you should make sure your home’s heat is kept on. It might be difficult to do this, especially if it’s costly to do so, but it’s the best way to keep your pipes from bursting and keep the water damage low.

Keep Interior Doors Open<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pipes are often located in cabinets, and when the temperatures drop, you should keep those pipes open. This helps keep the heat from affecting the pipes, letting them stay warm. You should also keep interior doors open so the heat can flow throughout the home, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apply Heat Tape<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Finally, we recommend that you apply heating tape to pipes. This works to keep heat directly applied to the pipe, keeping it warm during cold spells. It’s a good solution for short pipe sections that are at high-freezing risk and are easily accessible. You can install the tape and monitor it for problems if need be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
