Frozen Pipe FAQs

When pipes are frozen, you may notice reduced water flow or no water from your faucets. There could also be frost on the pipes or a strange smell from the tap or drain due to blockage. If you suspect your pipes are frozen, it’s important to act quickly to prevent any potential burst pipes which can cause substantial damage.

If your pipes are frozen, try safely thaw them by applying gentle heat with a hair dryer or heated towels. It’s crucial to avoid using open flames or high-heat devices, which can damage your pipes or cause a fire. Open faucets slightly to allow water to flow and help melt the ice. However, it’s best to contact professional plumbers if you’re unsure of the safe thawing process or facing a complicated situation.

Preventing pipes from freezing involves a combination of proper insulation, sealing drafts, letting faucets drip during extremely cold weather, and maintaining a consistent home temperature. Consulting with an expert plumbing service like Bob Larson Plumbing can prove invaluable for an in-depth assessment and long-term solutions.
