❄️ Frozen Pipes Are a Big Winter Risk in BC ❄️
When temperatures drop, frozen pipes can burst—causing serious water damage and costly repairs. Many homeowners don’t realize that while home insurance may cover sudden water damage, prevention is your best protection.
How to help prevent frozen pipes this winter:
✔️ Keep your home heated (even when you’re away)
✔️ Insulate exposed pipes in basements, crawl spaces & garages
✔️ Disconnect outdoor hoses and shut off exterior taps
✔️ Let faucets drip slightly during extreme cold
✔️ Seal drafts near pipes and exterior walls
💡 Why this matters for your home insurance:
Water damage from burst pipes can lead to claims, deductibles, and higher premiums. Taking preventative steps helps protect your home, your wallet, and your coverage.
🏠 If you’re unsure what your BC home insurance policy covers when it comes to frozen or burst pipes, now’s a great time to review it.
