Whenever it comes to the cold winter time, the water pipe is easy to be frozen, affecting the user’s normal water, then how to check the water pipe which is frozen? The following and small make up to learn it.

First, how to check the water pipe which is frozen

1, if you want to check out which position of the water pipe is frozen, you can observe in detail the color of the surface of the water pipe. In general, if the material of the water pipe is a plastic material, then the frozen position of the water pipe surface color will generally be darker, very easy to distinguish.

2, if you want to check out which position of the water pipe is frozen, you can also use a small hammer to gently tap the various positions of the water pipe, and then according to the sound emitted by the location of the hammer to determine clearly which position of the water pipe is frozen phenomenon, in general, the frozen position of the sound will be a little smaller. Knocking time, must be careful, do not be too strong, otherwise it is easy to break the water pipe.

3, if you want to check out which position of the water pipe is frozen, you can also use a specialized testing equipment to test, but the specialized testing equipment is more expensive, deliberately bought to test, it is a bit of a big deal. If the phenomenon of frozen water pipes often occurs at home, you can consider buying one.

Second, how to prevent the water pipe is frozen

1, can be coated with anti-freeze oil on the outside wall of the pipe, and when coated must be coated evenly.

2, you can also use plastic or cotton cloth wrapped around the outside of the pipe, so as to achieve the purpose of heat preservation, there are some people will be directly in the pipeline on the graffiti, so that not only can play a role in beautifying the role of the pipeline, but also on the pipeline to play a role in the role of antifreeze heat preservation.

3, you can also use the way has been dripping to prevent the pipe is frozen, when the water pipe has been in the dripping state, are generally difficult to freeze, so as long as a little open some of the faucet, you can let the water has been in the dripping state.

4, also can use the pipeline heat conduction to prevent freezing, for example: in the pipeline installed electric accompanied by heat insulation bag and so on.
