It may seem weird to talk about it now, but the time will
come soon enough when winter weather hits and outdoor faucets freeze. As water freezes, it expands and as it
expands it can produce thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch. This
pressure is what causes a water pipe to rupture. It is just a scientific fact!
The surest way to prevent your outside faucet from freezing
is to disconnect all of your outside hoses.
Now that is the smart move when the temperature drops drastically. Those
of us who have lived in Chicagoland’s Northwest Suburbs will remember how
quickly late summer turns into early winter in the blink of an eye.
If you have any plumbing emergency in our area a
professional plumber is the safest and surest way to guarantee that the job is
done right the first time. Those pros
are the teammates of Tom’s Plumbing Inc.
