  • Turn your faucets to drip (both hot & cold)

  • Keep the heat on at 60 degrees or higher

  • Leave cabinet doors in bathrooms and kitchens open to allow pipes underneath the sinks to receive warm air

  • Stay alert of any ice  when walking and driving

  • Turn off irrigation/sprinkler systems

  • Charge electronic devices and have candles/flashlights in case of power outages

  • Wrap exposed pipes located outside or in unheated areas of the home

  • Cover vents around your home's foundation

  • If you are not home shut off the water at the cut-off valve and drain all outside water faucets
