How to Avoid Burst Pipes from Freezing Temperatures in Ohio

• Leave kitchen faucets on a slow drip, because running water has less chance of freezing than still water.
• Open cabinet doors under sinks to expose pipes to warmer air circulation.
• Wrap pipes in vulnerable places outside with heat tape, available at local hardware stores.
• Unhook hoses from outdoor faucets.
• If washing machine or water-using appliances are in an unheated area, turn off water supply to those machines if you're not using them.
• Shut off irrigation systems.
