As winter weather approaches, the City of Fort Worth is telling residents and businesses to take steps to keep their water pipes from freezing and possibly bursting over this coming weekend.
Check to see that pipes in unheated parts of your home or business are insulated.Keep the lid on the meter box to better insulate it from freezing.
Commercial buildings with fire sprinklers should leave the heat on overnight and on weekends when subfreezing temperatures are forecast. If you must leave your house vacant for a long period, turn off your water supply at the valve on the resident's side of the meter box and have a plumber do the necessary work to prepare pipes to prevent damage.
