Restoration 1 Tips to Prevent Pipes from Freezing or Bursting

At Restoration 1, we use only the latest equipment and recommended processes for resolving frozen pipe bursts. We understand how devastating water damage and frozen pipe repair can be. Because of this, we would like to share a few useful tips on how to prevent pipes from freezing in the first place.

Cover your pipes with foam, polyethylene, or fiberglass insulation and secure it with tape or cable ties.
Remove all garden hoses from outside faucets.

Keep the heat inside your home at a steady temperature. Doing this will keep the walls warm, which in turn helps keep the outside pipes that lead inside at a higher temperature, making it harder for them to freeze.
Seal any cracks or holes around where the pipes run through the walls - seal inside and outside if possible. Spray foam insulation or caulk work well for this task.

Using heating tape for a small section of a pipe is a good idea, but not for longer pipes. There are two types of heating tape; manual and automatic. Make sure you follow all manufacturer instructions and safety guidelines.
Let water drip from each of your indoor faucets. (You can catch the water to use elsewhere). Although this will increase your water bill, it is harder for pipes to freeze with water moving through them at a constant rate. Do not use hot water as this will take a toll on your water heater and it won't be able to keep up.

These are our top suggestions when it comes to helping prevent a frozen pipe from bursting. One thing to always remember is that if a water leak or burst pipe is left untreated, mold can appear in under 36 hours. And that is something you definitely don't want.
