Dear ALL Valued Homeowners,
Just a quick note to let you know freezing temperatures are already in the forecast. See attached for some reading material which includes preventing frozen plumbing. Please check the forecast and plan accordingly: www.accuweather.com
Winterizing your outdoor faucets
Freezing temperatures are right around the corner, so now is the time to winterize your exterior water sources. Here are instructions on winterizing your hose bibs (outside water faucet)
STEP 1:
Disconnect any hoses from the hose bibs. Drain the water from the hoses. Store the hoses inside during the winter to prevent damage.
STEP 2:
Turn off any valve inside your home that supplies water just to the outdoor faucets. These valves will be located at your water heater or under a sink inside the house (kitchen, owner’s bath, guest bath or upstairs bath).
STEP 3:
Turn the handles to open the hose bibs. Let the water in the pipes drain. Leave the faucets open throughout the winter to release the pressure caused by the freezing of any remaining water inside the pipes.
We wish all a Happy Thanksgiving!
