Frozen pipes? 🧊 Here’s your quick guide to a safe thaw .
✅ SAFE STEPS:
• Keep faucets open so melting ice can flow out.
• Start at the faucet and work backward toward the blockage.
• Use gentle heat: A hairdryer, heat gun (on low), or heating pad works best.
• Safe space heaters: Keep portable heaters at least three feet away from flammable materials (skirting, insulation) and never leave them unattended.
❌ NEVER:
• No blowtorches! Open flames are a massive fire hazard to your home.
