Winter Conservation

• Close crawl spaces, vents and doors.
• Repair broken or cracked basement windows.
• Make sure basement doors and windows are closed tightly 

• Be sure pipes in unheated parts of your home, including crawl spaces are protected from freezing. 
• Use properly applied heat tape or pipe insulation 

• Allow warmer air to circulate around the plumbing
• Be sure to remove all harmful cleaners and chemicals if there are children in the  home.  

If you plan on being away for an extended period over the winter, or if you have a rental property that will be unoccupied, please make sure the temperature in the residence does not go below freezing
