At John C. Flood, we understand the challenges that freezing temperatures can pose to your home. In collaboration with WUSA9, we offer essential tips to help you protect your property during extreme cold:

1. Insulate Exposed Pipes: Prevent freezing and potential bursts by wrapping pipes in unheated areas with insulation.
2. Seal Drafts: Check windows and doors for drafts and apply weatherstripping or caulk to keep cold air out and warm air in.
3. Maintain Your Heating System: Schedule a professional inspection to ensure your furnace or heat pump operates efficiently throughout the winter.
4. Protect Outdoor Faucets: Disconnect hoses and cover outdoor faucets to prevent freezing and damage.

By implementing these measures, you can safeguard your home against the harsh effects of freezing weather. Our team at John C. Flood is dedicated to assisting you with all your winter preparation needs.
