COLD WEATHER
WARNING GIVEN
BY WATER co.
Expense Incident to Freez-
ing Pipes Can Be Avoided,
Firm Says.

Caution against allowing water
pipes and meters TO freeze was
urged today in warning issued by
the indianapolis Water Company in
an effort to prevent loss of service
and money to consumers.
Suggested methods of protecting
exposed pipes are available to the
public at the company's Office.
Last winter the first low tenn
peratures in indianapolis came
toward the end of November" the
warning states, and several hun
dred water service customers were
caught unprepared.
TO prevent unnecessary expense
and annoyance it is strongly recon-
mended that all exposed pipes and
meters be wrapped in insulating
material as an ai6 in guarding
against expensive freeze-ups.
Another wise precaution is to
close anG seal all windows and
other openings, especially where
these openings are near a water
pipe or meter" the warning con-
tinueS.
Buildings where no heat is
available should have all water
service pipes disconnected and the
meters removed. Immediate action
will save expensive repair bills.
Shut-off ~alves on service lines
also should be tested to assure in
slant availability, and all outside
sprinkling connections, including
silcocks, should be drained"
