- Indoor warmth
Indoor pipeline is more important to prevent freezing is to increase the indoor temperature, balcony, kitchen, bathroom and other rooms are closed doors and windows, or the use of thicker curtains, these can be maintained to a certain extent indoor temperature. Of course, in the house on the heating, the better the effect of indoor insulation.
- Water pipe heat transfer
Solar water heater commonly used in electric heat insulation bag, water pipe insulation can also be operated in this way, but the price is a little expensive. You can consider whether to use according to the economic situation.
3.Empty residual water
If you are using solar water heater, it is best to empty the water in the water heater pipes before the arrival of freezing weather. If the water meter is idle for a long time, you can also close the valve in front of the meter, open the tap at the lowest place to empty the water in the pipeline, to prevent freezing or water seepage.
Second, how to prevent freezing of outdoor pipes?
- Pipe insulation
Winter weather becomes cold, how to prevent outdoor pipes from freezing? It is recommended to use special insulation materials or straw, cotton and linen fabrics and other objects wrapped in a layer, which can avoid freezing pipes.
- Water meter anti-freezing
Outdoor water meter box in the water pipe and water meter in winter is also easy to freeze. Water meter and both sides of the joints can be straw, cotton and linen fabrics, sawdust and other materials such as wrapping or plugging, cover the water meter box cover, sealed to keep dry.
Third, has frozen pipes how to thaw?
- Pouring warm water
First use a towel or wet cloth to cover the faucet and water pipe, open the switch, and then pour warm water along the direction of the water pipe, slowly thawing, to avoid direct use of boiling water, which is likely to cause water pipe burst.
- Inside and outside the pipe heating method
Inside the pipe heating method is to remove the pipe, the thin flexible tube into the pipe, and then pass into the steam, salt water, etc. so that the ice inside the pipeline melting, so as to dredge the pipeline.
Outside the pipe heating method is to use steam, hot water, electric heating, etc. to melt the frozen ice inside the pipe into water to discharge, to achieve the effect of unclogging.
Thick pipes can be used in the pipe heating method, the more detailed use of pipe heating method.
The above is about the pipe anti-freezing and thawing a few methods, in order to protect the normal demand for water, winter should pay more attention to the condition of the water pipe, in advance to do a good job of anti-freezing measures. If you encounter other problems, you can also leave a message to me.
