Cold weather often brings unnecessary trouble to our lives. This is not, our daily use of tap water, if the outdoors will easily be frozen, if you do not take measures to thaw, the direct impact of our water, and the seriousness of the water pipes may also be frozen burst. That once the water pipe is frozen, how do we quickly thaw it? And what are the ways to prevent water pipes from freezing? Today we will talk about these two issues.
Picture.
Water pipe frozen fast thawing method
Water pipe in the ambient temperature below 0 ℃ will appear to be frozen, and want to let it quickly thawed, using the method is bound to give the water pipe warming, generally have the following three methods:
1, hot compress method
The so-called hot compress method, is the use of an absorbent towel, first wrapped around the exposed frozen part of the water pipe, including the faucet, it is best to wrap up. And then pour hot water on the towel, pay attention to a time not too much hot water, pouring too much will be spilled everywhere, but also a waste of water, the general towel just soaking wet on it, and then wait a moment, to be the temperature is reduced does not bubble hot, and then for the second time to water, generally speaking, the frozen is not too serious watering three times, the water pipe will be thawed. If the freeze is too serious, you can try to water a few more times. Do not try to screw the faucet when it is not completely thawed, it will destroy the sealing effect of the faucet.
This method, simple and practical, is easy to follow. The reason why you do not directly use boiling water to pour the water pipe, because direct boiling water, and can not quickly thaw, but also a waste of water, the use of towels wrapped, you can make the whole water pipe heat evenly, you can quickly melt the internal ice.

2, hair dryer blowing hot air
Now we should have a hair dryer at home, that is, the kind of hair blowing. We can use the hair dryer to blow hot air against the frozen water pipe, and soon you can thaw the water pipe. However, when blowing, you should be careful to start blowing from the faucet position first, and then slowly blow the water pipe. It should also be noted that, do not blow hard to a place, to make the water pipe evenly heated, especially the PPR water pipe, or it is likely to be the water pipe localized heat serious lead to damage.
The method, but also relatively simple, and will not be like a hot compress method like water spilled everywhere, thawing is also relatively fast. Of course, this needs to be connected to the power supply, some water pipes in the outdoor power supply, then you need to temporarily pull a plug, pay attention to the temporary power safety.

3、Electric accompanied by tropical law
Electric accompanied by tropical everyone may be relatively unfamiliar, but electric blanket everyone should understand. The substantial function and principle of the electric accompanied by tropical and electric blanket, energized will be hot. We can buy a specialized electric accompanied by the heat tape, wrapped in the water pipe, and then give the electricity, in the electric accompanied by the heat of the heat tape, soon the water pipe will be thawed.
The method, also is relatively simple, just need to buy a electric accompanied by tropical, in addition to the faucet is not very good thawing. In addition to use should also pay attention to the electricity safety.

Water pipe antifreezing method
The above gives you three water pipe fast thawing methods, any one can quickly thaw the water pipe, the operation is not complicated, but if we can prevent the water pipe from freezing, wouldn’t it be better? This method is a lot, I also give you a good method – intelligent electric accompanied by tropical anti-freezing method. The so-called electric accompanies the tropical anti-freezing method, is need we buy special electric accompanies the tropical, and then buys the intelligent power socket, and then matches the temperature sensor, makes the intelligent anti-freezing. That is, when the outdoor temperature drops to 0 ℃ below, the electric accompanies the tropical automatically energized heating, keep the water pipe above 0 ℃, will never freeze, in addition to intelligent control usually do not have to how to manage. This will save what thawing time.
