It’s Freezing Out Here.

By far the most common problem in the winter months in Central Illinois is frozen pipes, which obviously happens when the weather gets so cold that the water in your pipes freezes.  The first thing to do is turn off your water at the supply to keep any more water from clogging up and bursting the pipes.

Another side effect is the potential for a water line break.  When water freezes inside a line, it can cause blockages that will likely grow and eventually cause major leaks.  There are pressure relief valves that can be installed in your water line in certain areas to help make sure these blockages don’t occur.  That typically requires professional help.
