Steps we’ll take in Winterizing Your Plumbing 1) Shut off the water at the main valve, and turn off the water heater and/or water pump (if you have one). This will help protect the internal heating elements when there’s no water in the tank. 2) Open up all of your drain values and taps to ensure any water vacuums are released. 3) Using an air compressor, we’ll blow out any excess water in the lines. 4) Open up the discharge on your hot water tank and let it empty. 5) If you have a well, we’ll drain the water left in the holding tank. 6) Flush the toilets to remove water and add antifreeze to the tank & bowl to ensure any remaining water doesn’t freeze if you loose all heat for an extended period. 7) Add a touch of antifreeze to each drain trap to prevent any chance of freezing. Frozen Pipes - What to do? Frozen pipes are the most common issue that comes up during the winter months. If you notice a dramatic difference in water flow, it could be a sign of a frozen pipe.
