It’s Time to Winterize Your Home

Before freezing weather fully sets in, take some time to winterize your home to take care of your home’s infrastructure and prevent frozen pipes! Here are some helpful tips:

🏠 Insulate pipes that are located in unheated areas of the house

✅ Learn where the emergency water shut-off valve is located and how to use it

🔧 Disconnect and drain hoses from outside faucets and turn them off if they have their own shut-off valve

🗞 Insulate outdoor spigots with a foam cap or newspaper

💧 Turn off and drain automatic sprinkler systems and backflow assembly devices
