Now that the snow has arrived in Portland, we know that spring flowers are just around the corner! While we cozy up and enjoy the winter wonderland, it’s important to keep our homes protected from freezing temperatures. Stay warm out there, and don’t forget these five essential freeze-prevention tips:

1️⃣ Drip your faucets to keep water flowing and prevent pipes from freezing.
2️⃣ Open up cabinets to allow warm air to circulate around plumbing.
3️⃣ Ensure your pipes are insulated for extra protection.
4️⃣ Cover and disconnect your hoses to avoid burst pipes.
5️⃣ Keep your thermostat at a minimum of 55°F, even if you’re away.
