Pipe Thawing: Don't Delay!
In the Montreal region, when the frost goes down to 4 feet or more, some water inlets are susceptible to freezing. When this happens, intervention is necessary to restore the building’s water supply. Several methods are available, including electricity, steam, and hot water. exkavo recommends the hot water method, which poses no fire risk and does not damage the pipes.
You can check if a pipe is frozen by simply turning on the faucet. If you notice that the water pressure is reduced compared to normal or if you hear a sound similar to a hammer blow, it indicates that the water is starting to freeze inside the pipe. If this is the case, quick action is necessary! Frozen water tends to expand, which can lead to significant damage, including pipe and plumbing equipment rupture, if not addressed.
