Winter plumbing tip for Portland homeowners: opening cabinet doors under sinks and allowing a small drip during freezing temperatures can help reduce the risk of frozen pipes.
Cold snap temperatures increase the risk of frozen and burst pipes—especially in crawlspaces, garages, and exterior walls common in older Portland homes.
If you have little or no water flow, unusual noises in your plumbing, or visible frost on pipes, it’s important to act quickly to prevent damage.
