Winterizing Your HomeThe most common thing that happens in a home that does not need to happen is that people forget to unthread their hoses from their outside faucets. The water that is trapped in the hose freezes. As it freezes, the ice expands up the hose, through the valve, and into the house, whereupon the pipe splits. When it gets warm outside, the ice melts, and the house floods with water. So disconnecting your hoses from your outside faucets is the most important thing you can do in the winter. It's a very simple thing, and everyone should know how to do it. If you also have an inside valve to the outside faucet, it's a good idea to close it during the winter, again to eliminate any chance that the inside pipe might freeze from the outside. It looks like PLUMBERS PLUS has created the right solution for YOU and your budget. Are you ready to move forward now?
