Frozen Pipe Repair and Service
Indianapolis, Indiana
Plumbing pipes serve many vital functions in a home, but their umbrella purpose is water distribution for things like water heaters, water softeners, faucets, spigots, washing machines, dishwashers, and other water-related appliances. These systems are designed to work well in most conditions, however, winter weather can pose serious plumbing problems if you are not careful. Freezing temperatures can be highly damaging to pipes. Not only can they weaken their structural integrity, they can greatly reduce or stop their performance. You see, water within your underground plumbing system can quickly turn to ice in sub-freezing temperatures. And when water freezes inside pipes, it obstructs the opening while also making it expand.

This degree of blockage and pressure can cause pipes to crack, break, and burst open. To make matters worse, pipes damaged in this way can go unnoticed all winter long, and then turn into major slab leaks or water leaks come spring. Even a hairline crack can cause a 250 gallon water leak in just one days’ time! Frozen pipe damages can be very costly and invasive to repair if they are not addressed right away. The best way to avoid costly piping repair is to implement preventative methods to pipe freezing. This tip can potentially save you and your family thousands of dollars on plumbing pipe repair and reconstruction.
