Read this article to help you save on the huge repair costs of a burst pipe caused by neglected pipe freeze.

1.Let faucets drip slowly

To reduce the chances of pipe freeze blockages, leave faucets dripping slowly so that ice is able to escape before the pressure builds to the point where a pipe can burst. Though it appears to be a waste of water, it’s far less wasteful than allowing the pipes to burst and flood your home.

2.Keep room doors and cabinets open

Keep interior doors open to allow heat to circulate throughout the home, so that all rooms are equally warm.

3. Insulate your pipes , prevent from pipe freeze

Pipe insulation is relatively effective at keeping exposed pipes flowing all year long by maintaining the temperature from heat loss. It’s available at any hardware store, foam, rubber and fiberglass sleeves in the market are for you to choose.

4.Apply pipe heating cables or tapes

How does pipe heating cable work

Pipe heating cables or tapes will compensate for the heat loss and keep the pipes and water inside at a constant temperature. Many people turn their heat down at night to save money while sleeping, which is usually fine but should be avoided when the temperatures drop dangerously low.

In the long term, applying pipe heating cables (tapes) along with the insulation is comparatively the most effective and economical method of freeze protection. Vineheat’s pipe freeze protection heating cable with an integrated energy-saving thermostat operates automatically to maintain the pipe temperature within the required range. If you are looking for a reliable cable, Vineheat is glad to help
