PREPARING YOUR PLUMBING FOR YOUR HOLIDAY TRAVELS

Each year millions of Americans travel during the holiday season to visit family and friends. If you plan on being gone for an extended period of time, there are certain precautions you should take to ensure you don̓t come back to any unexpected plumbing surprises.

Turn off your home̓s water main to avoid possible flooding while you are away.

Have your drains hydro jetted by a professional to prevent them from smelling bad when you return.

Test your sump pump to make sure it̓s in good working order. Fill it with water and make sure it

automatically starts up.

Make sure your pipes are properly insulated and you are leaving your thermostat high enough to prevent

pipes from freezing.
