Winter is here, and freezing temps are coming at us! We want to help make sure your home stays safe and cozy this season. Here are a few quick tips to prevent frozen pipes:

•    Insulate exposed pipes: Wrap outdoor and garage pipes/ spigots/ hose bibs with foam insulation or an old towel; and if you have not already, detach all external hoses.
•    Keep faucets dripping: Let a small trickle of water flow, especially in colder areas of your home.
•    Open cabinet doors: Allow warm air to circulate around indoor pipes under sinks.
•    Keep the thermostat at a consistent temperature throughout the day, even if you’re away.

If you have any questions or need recommendations for local pros to help winterize your home, let us know—we are here to help!
