Unfortunately, we already have an Owner experiencing a casualty loss due to frozen pipes. Much thanks to the Owner that reported the leak to Gene Haas. Gene took immediate action to minimize the loss.
We’ve been fortunate the past couple of years to have very mild winters, but this latest cold front has packed quite a punch.
We urge all to make sure that potential freeze points are protected as appropriate to the conditions at hand. Among precautions to observe… Maintaining adequate heat, insulation, spigot covers, leaving cabinet doors open that house water pipes and leaving water dripping… Etc.
A more comprehensive list of recommendations by the NC Cooperative Extension is available at the website link included below. You can copy and paste in your browser to review.
We hope everyone stays wsrm and safe this winter…
