How to Prevent Pipes from Freezing - and Bursting

According to an article from aboutproperty.co.uk, burst water pipes have accounted for £15 million worth of home insurance claims across the UK. Caused by a plummet in temperatures the likes of which haven’t been felt for decades, freezing pipes have meant a 50 per cent increase in claims in January so far. So what are the best thawing and, more importantly, prevention measures for frozen pipes?

Firstly, if it’s too late for prevention and your pipes are already frozen, there are some simple but effective thawing methods one should always bear in mind. If you can, first turn on the nearest tap and then wrap the pipe securely in a towel. Then, pour boiling water over the towel until water begins to run from the tap. Alternatively, and if it is safe to do so, you can place a lamp close or a small heater (again, after turning on the tap beforehand) next to the pipe. Baca Lanjutanya..

Why Is Regular HVAC Maintenance Necessary?

Summer is coming so now is the time to think about your HVAC unit, right? You could not be farther from the truth. Your HVAC system needs to be thought of and addressed every month of the year and once seriously in the spring and the fall. Confused? Then you need to read on.Unless you feel like spending five ot ten thousand dollars every couple of years to replace the system that keeps your home and family comfortable year around, you need to make sure that your system is properly taken care of so it can take care of you.

What that means is that monthly, or semi monthly in some instances, you need to get in there and change your air filtration filter. Monthly if you just have the normal everyday house with maybe a shorthaired pet and carpeting. Twice a month if you have a couple pets, longhaired bread or hardwood or tile floors. This is because, for all intent and purposes, the area where the filter is becomes the mouth of your unit where it sucks in the air. ALL air will contain some contaminates and if you have certain conditions, it can contain a LOT of them. The good filters are great if you change monthly and the less expensive ones work great if you do it more often. Baca Lanjutanya..
