Before the first freeze, protect your pipes. 🥶
When water freezes, it expands about 9%, and that pressure can crack a pipe. A 1/8-inch crack can leak up to 250 gallons a day.
Four ways to protect your property this winter:
• Insulate exposed pipes in attics, crawl spaces and garages.
• Let faucets drip on the coldest nights.
• Keep the heat at 55°F or higher, even in empty spaces.
• Disconnect hoses and drain outdoor spigots.
If a pipe does burst, shut off your main water valve right away. If you need help with water damage, Togala is here for you.
