You know it’s coming. With the onset of winter next month, temperatures around Spokane and Coeur D’Alene will hit the freezing mark. It is a simple fact…when water freezes it expands. That expansion can cause ruptures. Damage often occurs not at the point where a pipe has frozen, but between the freeze and a faucet.
Pipes that run through exterior walls are at particular risk, but those that run through uninsulated attics and crawlspaces can also freeze. Poor insulation will probably increase the risk of bursting pipes. If you need help making improvements to prevent frozen pipes, contact a licensed builder or plumber.
In Eastern Washington and Northwest Idaho the answer, as always is River City Plumbing. The professional plumbers at River City will come to your home or business and troubleshoot or repair pipes that have or are about to burst from the upcoming frigid weather. Those phone numbers are (509) 954-6567 in Spokane or (208) 659-6565 in Coeur D’Alene.
