Winter in Fairfield County can be beautiful, but it can also be brutal on your home's plumbing. As your trusted local plumbers, Mennillo Plumbing wants to help you avoid those icy plumbing nightmares! A little preventative maintenance now can save you a lot of headaches (and money!) when the temperatures plummet.

Why Winterize Your Plumbing?

Think about it: water freezes, it expands, and that expansion inside your pipes can lead to cracks and bursts. Suddenly, that minor inconvenience of no water turns into a major disaster with water damage and costly repairs. 🥶

Here's your winterizing checklist from the pros at Mennillo Plumbing:

• Insulate those pipes! Any exposed pipes in crawl spaces, attics, or unheated areas need a cozy layer of foam insulation. The more, the merrier!
• Check those supply lines: Are the pipes leading to your sinks, toilets, and bathtubs running along exterior walls? They could be vulnerable to freezing. Insulate them too!
• Disconnect those hoses: This is critical! Disconnect all garden hoses from outside faucets and cover the faucets with insulated covers. Frozen hoses can cause major damage to your faucets and pipes.
• Fix those leaks: Even a small drip can turn into a big problem when it freezes. Address any leaky faucets or pipes now before they worsen.

Need a hand? We're here to help! Mennillo Plumbing offers comprehensive plumbing inspections to identify potential problem areas in your home. Our experienced and licensed plumbers can help you winterize your plumbing and ensure your pipes are ready for whatever winter throws their way.
