Hey Surrey! Prepping your plumbing for the fall is crucial, especially with those frigid temperatures coming. First, make sure to insulate any exposed pipes, particularly those in unheated areas like garages or basements. You can use pipe insulation sleeves or even wrap them with heat tape for extra protection. Don't forget to check your outdoor faucets; drain them and disconnect hoses to prevent freezing. Also, consider having a plumber check your water heater—flushing it can remove sediment that affects performance. Happy prepping!
