Colder weather is coming!

COLD WEATHER is COMING!!!

Just want to remind customers of helpful tips and reminders to prepare for the colder weather and freezing tempatures!

1.Know where your water shut off is. In case you have a water leak, it is important to know where your cut off to the water is to be able to shut off the water.

2. Cover and insulate outdoor water faucets, pipes that are in the cold, and drafty places in the home. Make sure any water hoses are disconnected. Also, turn off sprinkler systems and make sure they are drained.

3. Drip faucets overnight. If the pipes in your home are prone to freezing or the temperture is significantly below freezing; it is recommended you run a slow stream of water out of your faucets. 

4. Keep sink cabinet doors open to let warmth in and close garage doors.

5. Cover exposed pipes with blankets or towels.
