Wrap up Those Pipes.

Cold weather is hazardous not only to exposed skin, but to exposed pipes as well. This time of year, it is not uncommon for the thermometer to drop below zero at night. If you have left your Chicagoland home exposed to extreme temps such as these, your home’s pipes will take the brunt of that weather.

Here are some tips to prevent frozen pipes this winter in the Elgin area -

1. Remove all garden hoses that have been attached.

2. Make sure that you locate the shut off valve on the water supply line.

3. Protect any bib with an insulation foam cover.
