Why Frozen Pipes Burst

Frozen pipes are prone to burst because, when water turns into ice, its molecules expand. From there, the ice can quickly turn into a blockage that pushes still-liquid water toward the faucet. The result is high water pressure that will continue to expand the pipes and eventually causing them to rupture. What’s frustrating is that the pipes can freeze bit by bit, catching you off guard when they do burst, causing significant damage to your property.

There are many things you can do to prevent your pipes from freezing over, including:

• Insulating your pipes using foam or heat tape
• Letting the water run continuously in your pipes by keeping a couple of faucets open at a trickle
• Opening cabinets under the sink so that warm air reaches the plumbing
• Leaving the heat on to at least 55°F when you are going to be away for a long time

However, during extreme weather conditions, these preventive measures may not be enough.
