Frozen Pipes, Prevent Them: Don’t be left out in the cold! Even if your heat is on and you’re warm inside remember that when the temperature outside drops below freezing your pipes can freeze.
As the water inside your pipes freezes, it turns to ice and the ice expands. Pressure from expanding ice inside your frozen pipes can cause them to form cracks, that leaked water behind your walls and floors or ceilings. In no time flat, cracked pipes can become burst frozen pipes when they defrost, leaving you with a flooded basement and an on going threat of water damage.
When you’re at risk of bursting your pipes because your pipes are frozen, and water is not running from the faucets, check for cracks and leaks in the pipes by listening for water sounds behind walls and look for water marks on ceilings and floors. If you think you hear water or see signs of water call an emergency plumber.
