Is you vacant home winterized? Best practices for avoiding frozen pipes

2/5/2019 (Permalink)

Keep an eye on your vacant property to help avoid this water damage!

If you own a 2nd home, rental property or have a vacant property for sale, it's important to have it winterized before the winter starts and to have someone available to check on it for you while it's vacant.

While there are always unforeseen issues that can happen, it's the water that causes the most damage. Water can and will get into everything, continuously finding a way out is the name of the game.

Don't turn the heat off in the colder months, follow good instructions to protect your pipes and utilities, have your furnace and heating systems checked regularly, seal windows and doors if possible, check outside spigots and water sources. Speak with your insurance agent about tips they have and make sure your policy is where it needs to be.
