Cold weather is moving into Benbrook tonight, and homeowners are being urged to take a few quick precautions to avoid costly plumbing problems. When temperatures drop fast, pipes can freeze before you realize it, but a little preparation can make all the difference.
Residents are encouraged to let faucets drip, both hot and cold, to keep water moving. Opening cabinet doors helps warm air reach vulnerable pipes, especially in kitchens and bathrooms.
Outdoor hoses should be disconnected, and exterior faucets covered. It is also wise to know where your home’s main water shutoff is located in case of an emergency. Keeping the heat on and interior doors open can help maintain steady airflow throughout the home.
If problems do arise, Plumb Right Solutions is available at 682-286-5436. Taking a few minutes tonight can prevent a major headache tomorrow.
