What Causes Pipes To Freeze?

When the weather gets cold, the water in your pipes can start to freeze. As water freezes and turns to ice, it expands, which causes pipes to crack or burst. Major plumbing appliances, such as boilers or water heaters, use closed systems.

Any frozen pipe is problematic, but a frozen pipe in a closed system is even more serious, as this can increase the pressure and cause extensive damage to your home.

Pipes in unheated spaces, such as basements, attics, garages, exterior walls, under cabinets, or near outdoor water fixtures, are the most susceptible to freezing due to their exposure to the cold and lack of insulation. Older pipes and pipes that have frozen before are also at a higher risk.

Signs You Have Frozen Pipes

Frozen pipes are one of the top plumbing concerns during winter. Looking out for signs of freezing or frozen pipes will help you act fast so a professional can mitigate the damage.

Signs you have frozen pipes include:

• No water coming from faucets: If the water in your pipes is frozen or actively freezing, it can’t flow freely.
• Strange noises: Sounds like whistling, banging, or bubbling after you flush a toilet indicate you may have frozen pipes.
• Frost: If you see even the smallest amount of visible frost on any pipes, particularly in exposed areas, this is a key sign that the water is freezing or already frozen.
• Bulging or cracks: Bulging or cracked pipes are serious problems that need to be addressed immediately, especially if you see ice seeping out.
• Foul smells: If you’ve noticed bad odors from your drains, this could mean frozen water in your pipes is creating blockages. These blockages cause foul smells to move back up to your drains.

The longer a pipe remains frozen, the worse the damage can become. If you suspect you have frozen pipes, contact our team right away.
