Winter Tips:
- Prevent fozen water pipes: do not leave your garage door open
- Keep your thermostat set above 65 derees when you leave home for several days
- Keep open cabinet doors leading to exposed ipes (such as access doors for sinks), so that household air can warm them.
- If your pipes freeze, immediately turn off water, try to defrost pipes and contact a trusted plumber.
- Know the location of your water shut-off valve in your home and keep accesible the curb stop valve outside. Quick access by you as a homeowner inside and an accessible curb stop valve for the District to access outside will aid quick response if a pipe breaks.
