❄️ Extreme Cold Weather Alert: Protect Your Pipes ❄️

 

The Glenbrook Sanitary District reminds all residents that an extreme cold weather event is underway. During these frigid conditions, household pipes are at risk of freezing and bursting, which can cause costly damage and water loss.

​

Tips to Prevent Frozen Pipes:

• Keep a small trickle of water running from faucets overnight.

• Open cabinet doors under sinks to allow warm air to circulate around pipes.

• Ensure basement and crawl space windows are tightly closed.

• Disconnect garden hoses and cover outdoor spigots.

• Know where your main water shut‑off valve is located in case of emergency.

 

Why It Matters:
Frozen pipes can burst, leading to flooding, property damage, and service interruptions. Taking simple precautions now helps protect your home and our community’s water system.

​

Stay safe, stay warm, and thank you for helping safeguard our infrastructure during this extreme cold event.
