The City of Boardman wants residents and businesses to take steps to keep their water pipes from freezing and possibly bursting over the winter.
These tips can help:
Find the faucet furthest from where water enters the house and let it to drip slowly. Allowing water to move through the pipes will reduce the chance of water freezing. Set a bucket in the sink to collect the water that drips, so it can be saved for other household uses.
Set the thermostat above 65° if you are leaving the house for multiple days.
Make sure all outside pipes are insulated.
