Preventative Measures for Frozen Sewer Lines
As Minnesotans, we’ve all experienced frozen sewer lines and septic systems at some time or another. The frigid temperatures coupled with poor insulation in residential or commercial property often compounds the problem. If left unattended, this can lead to burst pipes, severe and unsanitary backups, and even potential flooding in your home or business. Frozen lines can occur in homes of any age or size; however, older homes are particularly at risk.
Preventing frozen sewer lines is easier than dealing with the consequences. Here are some tips to keep your pipes from freezing:
- Insulate Pipes: Ensure all pipes, especially those in unheated areas, are well-insulated.
- Seal Leaks: Fix any leaks in pipes to prevent cold air from entering.
- Regular Maintenance: Schedule routine maintenance with Dusty’s Drain Cleaning.
