Frozen pipes typically occur during extremely cold weather, but a high wind chill can also play a factor. Pipes exposed to cold air outdoors, such as taps for garden hoses, outdoor irrigation systems or piping for pools and hot tubs, are especially vulnerable to freezing. Indoor pipes can also freeze, particularly in poorly insulated areas such as garages, basements, or along exterior walls.
The fact that frozen pipes become blocked by ice is only part of the problem. As water freezes and expands, the chances of your pipes bursting increases, which can cause extensive and costly water and structural damage to your building.
Preventative measures when dealing with frozen pipes are time-sensitive but can protect against extensive damage, so knowing what signs to look for is essential. Here are some of the biggest tell-tale signs that you need frozen pipe repair in Toronto:
You may see a bulge or crack in the accessible pipes. This is a big identifier that suggests that your pipes are frozen and ice is expanding inside.
Frost or ice appearing on the exterior of your pipes, especially near joints and bends, suggests that the water inside has started to freeze.
A noticeable decrease in water pressure or no water coming out of your faucets can mean that ice is forming inside the pipes, blocking the flow of water.
Watermarks on your ceilings and walls or puddles on the floor can indicate a cracked, frozen pipe that is leaking water into your home.
When pipes produce banging, whistling, or bubbling noises, water is trying to pass through the pipe but is struggling due to a blockage or ice buildup.
An odd smell coming from your drains or faucets could be due to ice pushing back decomposing material that cannot escape through frozen plumbing.
If you expect your pipes to be frozen, there is a chance that they have already sustained damage, whether a crack or burst. Even after pipes thaw, call the experts at Saving Plumbing for a check-up.
Preventing frozen pipes can be accomplished with a little preparatory work. In autumn or during the onset of winter, make sure to drain your garden tap and store the hose for the winter.
Drain all pipes leading to and from your swimming pool, hot tub, or irrigation system. Insulating your pipes is one of the most effective ways to prevent freezing. Use foam pipe insulation, which is inexpensive and easy to install.
Keep your home heated to at least 55 degrees Fahrenheit, even if you are away. Consistent temperatures inside the home help prevent the walls and the pipes within them from freezing.
Your basement and garage should be heated as well to protect the sensitive pipes inside.
