Call Now (833) 502-4258Freezing weather and burst pipes
Hard freezes are one of the most common causes of water extraction in Idaho. Pipes in exterior walls, attics, crawl spaces, and unheated garages can split, and the leak often starts only when the pipe thaws. The American Red Cross advises keeping the heat at 55°F or higher when you are away and letting faucets on exterior walls drip during extreme cold.
