Where I live, we’re just now pulling out of a nasty cold snap. For about a week straight, the temperatures ranged from 6-20 degrees (F). We had to keep a fire going day and night, bring the dogs and potted plants in the house, and take a few special measures to make sure the pipes didn’t freeze. If you don’t already know the basics of frozen pipe prevention, this article by Chrysa at Thrifty Jinxy will definitely save you a lot of headaches. It also has some helpful advice on what to do if they are already frozen. I even learned a few new moves:
-You want to leave a small trickle of WARM water running out of all faucets to keep the pipes warm.
-Periodically run lots of hot water.
-Open the doors to the vanity or sink below the faucets
-Turn up your house heat a few degrees if you keep it low.
