Take steps to prevent water pipes from freezing

Take steps to prevent water pipes from freezing OSU Extension Center After waking up on a cold winter morning, nothing gets the day started on the right foot like a hot shower. However, if the weather has been extremely cold, there is a possibility that shower may have to be delayed if no water comes out of the faucet due to frozen pipes. Gina Peek, Oklahoma State University Cooperative Extension consumer and housing specialist, said a homeowner’s best course of action is to take steps to prevent frozen pipes in the first place. “It’s best to take action before cold weather hits. Preventive measures can help ensure your pipes don’t freeze. This is important because a broken pipe can be costly to repair, not including the water damage your home may suffer,” Peek said. “Keep in mind water expands when it freezes, which results in a lot of pressure on your water pipes, whether they are metal or plastic.”
