As the fall season approaches in North Texas, it’s important to ensure your home’s plumbing is ready for cooler temperatures. One essential tip is to disconnect and drain outdoor hoses. Leaving hoses connected can lead to trapped water freezing and causing damage to your pipes. Make sure to store the hoses indoors to prolong their life and prevent any water-related issues. Additionally, consider insulating exposed pipes in your garage or basement to prevent freezing during unexpected cold snaps. Taking these preventive steps can help you avoid costly repairs and keep your plumbing system in good shape throughout the fall and winter months.
