Winter is coming. You feel it when you come home from work and take the dog out for a walk. You hear more about it on the Weather Channel, bundle up, and go to bed. 

The next morning, when you go to make your coffee, wash your hands, or take your shower… nothing. It’s happened. Your pipes are frozen. What do you do? Call the Barlow Plumbing Service, Inc. team, and we can help.

Frozen pipes are a real problem. Not only are you inconvenienced by the lack of water, but this nuisance can lead to ruptures. A ruptured pipe can mean extensive damage to your carpet, floors, walls, ceilings, furniture, etc.  A ruptured pipe can cost a homeowner $15,000 or more, according to State Farm Insurance.

Freezing Temperatures in Western North Carolina

Here in Asheville, NC, it doesn’t get as cold as it does in the northern US or Canada. Believing that our comparably moderate winter temps will spare us from frozen pipes is a myth that can cost you. With an average winter low temp of 29°F, we are still very much vulnerable to frozen pipes here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. In fact, because many homes in our region lack proper insulation; when cold weather does hit, it can lead to major trouble.
