Frozen Pipes

If you go away

Top tips to protect your home while you're catching some winter sun or hitting the slopes!

Leave your heating on while you are away from home. In severe weather, or if severe weather is forecast, you should leave your heating on day and night at your usual temperature setting, especially if you are going to be away from home for any length of time. This will help to stop your pipes freezing.
Open your loft trap door. This allows warm air from other parts of the house to circulate in the loft, and will help prevent pipes freezing. This is especially important if you know your pipe lagging is below standard.
Ask a friend or relative to visit your home every day while you are away. This will mean that, if you do suffer a burst pipe, it will be detected as soon as possible, and the damage caused will be minimised.
