It’s essential to prepare your home ahead of freezing cold temperatures Wednesday night because once the temperatures drop below zero, there’s a chance your pipes could freeze.
I ran a few faucets a bit all night during a 25 degree hard freeze, and I had running water the next day. My well pump is running fine afew days after the freeze by running a bit of water all night for three nights!! It works.
This guy is great. I've watched many and he's only one of 2 so far that I've seen get it right and give the best advice. He didn't mention exterior faucets. Do y'all not need those dripping at a steady stream up north?
If you're house is old like the one I'm in just turn off the water and drain the pipes. Won't have water for a while but it's better then paying hundreds if not thousands in repairs and damages. Make sure all outside pipes are insulated to. And fallow what this video said to.
What about this time? 4-5 days straight of weather below freezing, and some days wind chill below 0°. Should I have my faucets slowly dripping water the entire time?
My water was off I’m not sure why but it’s not frozen. 10:27 pm and woke up at 2:15 am. How hot is your house ? I keep mine exactly on 75. I bumped it up to 77 when I woke up . My kitchen facet was just fine . I make sure my house is nice and warm toasty before I go to sleep to make sure if the water does happen to shut up by any means or if I forget to turn it on then least the house is keeping it warm
