Winter weather warning!

December 1st, 2010

Have you protected your home this winter?

With the onset of yet another early freeze, there are a few simple precautions that can be taken by you to ensure the continued well-being of your home, tenanted property or any other property.

One of the largest dangers that exist during the winter weather are burst water pipes. This happens when the water freezes within the pipe, expands thus damaging it, causing an escape when the water thaws.

The following steps should be taken to ensure that the property and its contents are not seriously damaged due to an escape of water:

  • Ensure that pipes and water tanks are well-lagged. Unlagged pipes are far more likely to freeze in sub-zero temperatures. Insulation materials and lagging are relatively inexpensive and will frequently cost less than the policy excess charged by your insurer in the event of a claim.
  • If the property is unoccupied, even a relatively small leak if undiscovered, can cause catastrophic damage. If this is the situation, the water system can either be drained or if thermostatically controlled, the heating system should be left to operate at a minimum temperature of 15 degrees Celsius.
  • If there is a gravity fed water or heating system, one vulnerable area may be the tank in the loft space. This is because the insulation on the loft floor may prevent the warmth of the house penetrating through increasing the likelihood of an escape of water. In these circumstances, if the premises are unoccupied, it is best to drain the water system. Alternatively, if the heating is left in operation, to ensure that some warmth circulates in the loft space, the loft hatch should be left open.
