Thawing Frozen Lines
Frozen season can cause major issues with your sewer or water lines. If temperatures drop low enough, you’ll notice a halt in your plumbing. We’ve got the tools and technicians to get your lines thawed and flowing.
Frozen Water Lines
Water lines commonly freeze during the winter months. They typically freeze due to improper insulation or lack of a heat source. These locations include interior areas such as basements, crawl spaces, attics, garages, trailer houses/mobiles, kitchen cabinets, uninsulated exterior walls, or underground. To thaw frozen water lines we can apply heat tape or apply other sources of heat to thaw the lines. Before we can come thaw your frozen water lines, we require customers to read and sign our Frozen Water Lines Terms and Conditions form.
Frozen Sewer Lines
Once temperatures drop low enough to cause the ground to freeze, depending on the location, the sewer lines are also susceptible to freezing. We use Hot-Water Hydro Jetting to thaw frozen sewer lines. The jetter uses hot, high-pressure water to break through the ice. Once thawed, your system will be back up and running. However, if the weather doesn't change, the line is likely to freeze again without intervention.
FAQs
-
Water lines freeze due to a combination of cold temperatures and improper insulation. Our technicians can apply heat to thaw the lines, but if the insulation is not fixed, the lines will re-freeze.
-
Sewer lines typically freeze when temperatures are so cold the ground begins to freeze. Sewer lines that are shallow will likely freeze. Hot-water jetting is required to thaw the line.
