This round of low temperature rain and snow freezing weather has a wide range and a long time, and the Spring Festival is approaching, Yueyang Water Group warmly reminds you to pay attention to cold and warmth, and do a good job in advance of water meters, faucets, pipelines and other water supply facilities to prevent freezing and keep warm.
Wear clothes and hats:Water supply facilities such as water meters and water pipes that are exposed outdoors or installed in positions with poor thermal insulation can be wrapped with rubber sponges and rock wool, and tightly wound and fixed with external tape to prevent snow water from invading; The water supply facilities in the meter well can be insulated with clothing, foam boards, thermal insulation foam, etc.
Close the doors and windows:Pay attention to close the doors and windows of the home, especially the doors and windows in the shade of the kitchen, bathroom, storage room, etc., to prevent ventilation, to ensure that the temperature around the water supply facilities is above zero. Users who do not use water for a long time in winter due to going out or other reasons should close the water inlet valve in time before cooling down, drain the remaining water inside, and leave *** to your neighbors and relatives so that they can be disposed of in time after an emergency to avoid economic losses.
Dripping into a lineIn order to ensure the safety of water, users can also use the method of "dripping into a line" to keep the water flowing in the facility and prevent the water pipes from freezing at night.
If the water pipes in your home have frozen, you should close the valve first and unscrew the faucet slightly to eliminate the pressure inside the pipe and avoid the pipe cracking. When thawing, turn on the faucet and make sure there are people in the house to avoid unnecessary losses.
If the pipe freezes, you can use a hot towel to apply a hot towel to the water pipe and then rinse and thaw with hot water, when the faucet is frozen and cannot be turned on, use about 40 warm hot water along the exposed water pipe for showering and thawing, or wait for the temperature to rise after the water can automatically return to normal. Do not bake directly with fire or blanch with boiling water to avoid cracking the water pipe.
Yueyang Water Group will strengthen the inspection and repair of the pipe network, pay attention to the safety of water supply facilities, and make every effort to ensure safe and high-quality water supply during low temperature and freezing weather. In case of waterless phenomena such as pipeline freezing, water meter freezing and cracking, you can call the Municipal Water Affairs Group for 24 hours 2933333.
