Cold Weather Drain Tips ❄️

Cold Weather Drain Tips ❄️

(01/23/2026)


This freeze is tough on drains — cold temps make grease and buildup harden fast, causing sudden clogs. Quick tips to help:


• Don’t pour grease or oil down the drain


• Use strainers to catch food and hair


• Run hot water regularly to keep pipes clear


• Insulate exposed pipes in basements/garages


• Keep indoor temps steady to prevent freeze-ups


• For a frozen drain, try small amounts of boiling water or a hair dryer on exposed pipes


If it’s still backing up, the blockage is likely deeper and needs a professional clear.
