5 Measures To Make Your Plumbing System Winter Resistant
Copyright (c) 2011 Gerry Stringer
A little forethought and some antifreeze can help immensely when winterizing your plumbing system. In order to avoid incurring plumbing expenses and putting your family through hot water shortages and broken pipe problems, take these preventative measures to avoid plumbing problems before the temperatures drop in Colorado.
The most important thing to do for unused plumbing fixtures is to drain them or blow them out accordingly. Use compressed air to force remnant water out of sprinkling systems and the like. For vacant homes during the winter, drain all water from all pipes, including the water tank and toilet. Then pour in antifreeze and you have just avoided major risk of frozen pipes. Even if it is just a hose you have disconnected, make sure water is not remaining inside because the water will freeze.
The plumbing you will be using throughout the winter can be more important and more difficult to protect. You can prevent a mess just by making sure your septic tank is not too full. By the time it causes stoppage in the main line, you won't want it to be buried under snow and frozen ground because it will be more expensive to treat.
You and your family do not want to enter hot shower season with a hot water heater that is less than par. If you feel a decrease in hot water at all, or even if you just want to be certain you won't, change the heating element yourself or hire a professional to help you. If you ignore or fail to notice when the first heating element goes out, it may be just a matter of time before it goes out completely. And that would be a major fire drill.
Look thoroughly for exposed pipes outside your home and apply insulation to them. If it is not done correctly, the pipes will most likely still burst in extreme cold. Put the insulation around the pipe and seal tightly. You can also use an electric wire, called heat tape, that you wrap around the pipes and then plug in in order to heat them.
The simplest save of all: opening your kitchen cabinets. For sinks up agains cold, exterior walls, all you need to do is open the kitchen cabinets to allow the warm air in your home to get to the pipes.
When in doubt, call a professional because preventative plumbing is always less expensive than post-problem plumbing and nothing is worse than having the hot water out during a blizzard.

Frequently Asked Questions...
Are children's pajamas expected to just burst into flames or something?
I've been noticing the children's sleep ware warnings mentioning something like "For child's safety, garment should fit snugly. This garment is not flame resistant. Loose-fitting garment is more likely to catch fire." I also see on by-the-yard polar fleece that the fabric is not intended for sleep ware since it isn't flame resistant. So, what's the deal with kids' pajamas needing to be snugly fitting or treated to be flame resistant? Is there just some expectation that these pajamas will burst into flames in the middle of the night? What's the rational behind it?
Answer:
it's to cover their butts in case of lawsuits. some parents have sadly let children with loose fitting jammies get to close to heaters at bedtime and wake up time.their jammies caught on fire or melted in some cases.so the rational behind it would be warn the parents because the companies are not lawsuit resistent or lawsuit treated
