FALL/WINTER PLUMBING & HEATING TIPS

Prevent Winter Water Disasters
There are several measures that can be taken to prevent winter water disasters in your home. Below, we describe a few of the basics.

• Locate and mark the main water cutoff valve for your home. This cutoff valve is usually found near where the water line comes into your house. Damage from running water can be minimized if you turn off this valve quickly.
• Make sure the water line to outside faucets is turned off and the lines are drained.
• Consider wrapping or insulating your water pipes, especially those pipes near outside walls, under the house, or in the attic. Insulation supplies are available at your local home improvement/hardware store.

Eliminate drafts. Check around the home for areas where water supply lines are located in unheated areas and take measures to prevent the flow of cold air in these areas. Look in the basement, crawl space, attic, garage, and under kitchen and bathroom cabinets. Both hot and cold water pipes in these areas should be insulated. A hot water supply line can freeze just as a cold water supply line can freeze if water is not running through the pipe and the water temperature becomes cold.

If your water pipes do freeze, never try to thaw a pipe with an open flame or torch. Contact your local licensed plumbing professional.

Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, toxic gas created when fossil fuels are not burned completely. Causes of CO-related incidents can include blocked furnace/boiler vents and chimneys or improperly adjusted or inadequately maintained appliances.

Warning signs of CO in your home can include stuffy, stale air; condensation on windows; back drafts from a fireplace, furnace or water- heating chimney; yellow burner flames (except from natural gas fireplaces or logs); or burner flames or pilot lights that flutter or keep going out. Soot - or lingering pungent odors around appliances are other warning signs.

If you notice any of these, turn off the equipment immediately and introduce fresh air to the building. Call a qualified, licensed natural gas contractor to inspect the equipment as soon as possible.

Tune up
Maintaining an efficient heating system is a sound strategy for conserving energy and cutting costs during the day to block out the sun.

• Have your heating system professionally serviced once a year.
• Have your chimney flue, space heaters, water heater and fireplace checked.
• Clean or replace your heating system filter every month during the heating season. A dirty or clogged filter forces your furnace and fan to work harder, which costs you more. You'll be warmer for less money, and breathe easier, if you clean or replace your furnace filter often.
• Your furnace or boiler needs air to work properly (and efficiently). Make sure it is unobstructed.
