Cold weather can cause havoc with your water....here are a few helpful reminders:
1. Disconnect and drain outdoor hoses and spigots- wrap outside faucets
(use insulation, heat tape, faucet covers, fabric, plastic bags -check with your local hardware store).
2. Leave a pencil-lead-thin stream of water dripping at all your faucets
3. Insulate water pipes or faucets in exposed or unheated areas
4. If you have a crawl space be sure to cover the outside vents
5. Find your main shut-off valve and label it
6. Keep your cover/lid on your outside meter...this will protect the meter from freezing.
Just a few helpful hints....we recommend that you contact a professional (plumber) if you need further
information or instructions.
