Frozen water pipes can be caused due to a variety of factors, such as cold outside temperatures, poor insulation, or lack of proper ventilation in the area where the pipes are located.

In addition, clogged drains and trees with roots growing too close to your house’s underground water lines can lead to frozen pipes.

Clogged drains can impede water flow and cause pressure to build up in the pipes, which can lead to bursting or freezing.

Trees with roots growing too close to underground water lines can also cause damage to the pipes, which can lead to freezing if the pipes are not properly insulated or if the damage causes a leak.

In some cases, leaving faucets turned on slightly during cold weather can prevent freezing. Keeping your home heated is another way to help keep your pipes from freezing.

• Outdoor faucets
• Pipes in unheated basements, attics, and garages
• Pipes running through exposed walls, exterior walls, or crawl spaces
• Pipes running outside your home or below ground level near the foundation
• Irrigation systems that have not been winterized
  

A frozen pipe is a serious problem that should be addressed as soon as possible. When it remains frozen, the water trapped inside can expand, increasing the risk of a pipe bursting due to tiny cracks or weaknesses in the wall.

An outdoor pipe bursting can cause flooding of your yard and damage to your foundation, while an indoor pipe bursting can lead to costly clean-up and repair.

Frozen and burst pipes are a common problem even in warmer climates. While it may not be possible to prevent frozen pipes completely, there are some steps that homeowners can take to reduce their risk of having frozen or burst pipes in their homes.

First, keep the temperature inside your home at least 18C (65F) degrees, even when you’re away from home for extended periods.

Secondly, insulating exposed pipes with insulation material will help keep them from freezing.

Thirdly, winterize your pipes by draining irrigation systems and pools before winter sets in.

Finally, if you suspect a pipe has frozen, turn off the water supply immediately and contact a professional plumbing service like Vernon Air Conditioning, Plumbing & Electrical Services immediately to avoid further damage.
