The Problem with Frozen Pipes
Any pipe in your commercial system that is exposed to cold weather can be vulnerable to freezing. That especially applies to outdoor pipes from your sprinkler system and the like, but can also affect indoor pipes that run through areas without adequate insulation.
When water freezes, it expands. When it freezes in pipes, it puts an inordinate amount of pressure on those pipes. Not only does that shut off water from the affected outlet, but if the pipe bursts, it could severely damage any surrounding material, and put your business on the hook for a big expense.
Moving Swiftly to Handle Burst Lines
Burst lines can disrupt your entire operation, and when you spot them you need to be able to move fast. Otherwise, the damage could spread, and until it’s fixed, it may bring your entire operation grinding to a halt. A plumber needs to arrive fast and make an accurate appraisal of the situation.

An Ounce of Prevention Beats a Pound of Cure
Fixing a burst pipe is one thing, but we want to do more than that. That means identifying spots in your commercial plumbing system that may be vulnerable to burst pipes and making recommendations on the best way to protect them. That can involve anything from insulating the pipe in question to performing winterizing operations every fall to keep your outdoor plumbing in proper shape.

An ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure as they say, and in this case, it can save your business a lot by stopping burst pipes before they start!
