How to Protect Your Home in Extreme Cold

It’s cold outside. Much of the country is layering up for some below freezing temps. And while the Experts are always eager to help, we’ve got a few HVAC and plumbing tips to help you avoid those cold weather emergencies.

    • Disconnect those exterior water connections.
    • Make sure you insulate exposed pipes and outdoor fixtures.
    • A slow drip in indoor sinks by exterior walls can keep pipes from freezing.
    • Open up kitchen and bathroom cabinets underneath sinks to keep warm air flowing around pipes.
    • Maintain an indoor temperature of at least 68 degrees (and warmer if possible).
    • Get those space heaters ready by testing them for proper operation.
    • If you’ve got vents shut in unused rooms, open them now.
    • Last but not least, give those smoke and carbon monoxide detectors a quick inspection.

Follow these easy tips to keep your HVAC and plumbing warm and working. Then make yourself some hot chocolate. And, as always, Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing is here for you. If you have questions, concerns or problems, don’t hesitate to call.
