5 TIPS ON HOW TO AVOID BURST PIPES IN YOUR HOME THIS WINTER

Posted in Burst Pipes, on January 08, 2019 By Admin



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dealing with a water damage in Toronto is never fun or easy. Emergency water
damages in Toronto are usually unexpected and can cause damages to your property
or belongings if you do not act quickly. Or, you can be proactive and be
prepared to help avoid a water damage in Toronto from occurring in the first
place. There are many ways to avoid burst pipes in Toronto and avert the damages
that come with it and below are only some of the best tips you should follow:



 * Add insulation to your pipes. There are different kinds of insulation
   materials that you can purchase from your local hardware store, all designed
   to add warmth to your water pipes and help prevent water from freezing inside
   of them and causing pressure to damage your plumbing. Some of the most widely
   available types of insulation include foam and heat tape. If you have budget
   to spare or perhaps pipes that are extremely prone to freezing, you can also
   invest in thermostatically-controlled heat cables.

 * Allow faucets to drip. During winter time, you want to keep pressure within
   your pipes to be as low as possible. Letting a small drip out allows water
   flow stimulation and keeps pressure inside the pipes low, which also means
   less chances of Toronto water damage from burst pipes.

 * Keep heat on. Even when you’re going away for the winter, consider keeping
   the heat on to help avoid pipes from freezing. While this may seem like
   paying for wasted energy, it can actually save you from more cost due
   to Toronto emergency water damage. Instead of the added cost on your heating,
   think about the peace of mind and the savings you will get from knowing that
   you won’t go home to a water-damaged property.

 * Arm yourself with a caulk gun. Seal up cracks and holes where cold air could
   seep into. Air leaks make your heating system less efficient and contribute
   to the possibility of frozen or worse – a burst pipe in Toronto.

 * Consider draining your water system and shutting off the main water
   line. This is the surest way to keep your pipes from freezing and bursting as
   you’d be ridding it of water to freeze as well as pressure to cause rupture.
   This is a good option when leaving town for quite some time.
