1. Disconnect & Drain: Disconnect garden hoses and drain outdoor faucets and cover with insulation caps.

2. Insulate Pipes: Use pipe insulation or heat tape on exposed pipes in the attic, crawl spaces, or outside.

3. Seal Gaps: Caulk or seal cracks to keep cold air out where pipes run through walls.

4. Circulate Warm Air: Open cabinet doors to let heat reach your pipes.

5. Keep Water Flowing: Let faucets drip slightly to prevent freezing.

6. Stay Warm: Keep your thermostat at 65°F or higher—even if you're away.

7. Be Proactive to Protect your Property from damage: Call American Leak Detection to install an automatic water shut-off device to prevent major damage.
