Frozen Pipe Tips

When most people think of Las Vegas, they envision year-round hot weather. City residents know that winter temperatures can drop below freezing. This increases the risk for frozen pipes. Each time a pipe freezes, the copper line stretches. After several freeze-thaw cycles, the pipe eventually cracks. A burst water line can cause extensive water damage to your home. Plumbers Henderson NV can check your outdoor hose bibs before winter weather becomes an issue.

One indicator that a pipe is frozen is a noticeable drop in water pressure at faucets inside your house. Plumbers Las Vegas can address the issue before it becomes a bigger problem. A frozen pipe obstructs the flow of water. Running water will partially thaw the pipe. Leave your faucets open. If this technique fails and the line is completely frozen, locate and turn off the main water valve. We will determine if the broken line has an individual shutoff and cordon off the broken pipe. This will prevent possible water damage.
