Protect Your Pipes in Cold Weather
There are a number of things that can be done. You've likely heard of the recommendation to leave your faucets dripping whenever temperatures drop into the danger zone. This is a really helpful trick, as any movement through the pipes, even just a trickle, will help stop the water from freezing and expanding in your pipes.
But if you want peace of mind, you've got to step things up a bit. And this easy hack will help. It is recommended by the Red Cross as a way to prevent a frozen disaster! And it takes just two steps:
1. Make sure that you set your thermostat high enough to keep the interior of your home warm. The best bet would be to set it to no lower than 55 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Open any cabinets covering pipes, particularly those running to your kitchen and bathroom faucets.
3. Do this any time you won't be using the pipes for a while, such as overnight, or while you will be away.

That's it! This works because leaving the cabinets open will allow the warm air in your home to circulate around the pipes. And simple hacks like this will generally keep your pipes safe. If you want to go an extra step further, you can add a little more insulating to your pipes.
Simply head to a hardware store and look for pipe sleeves, heat tape, or a heat cable. All of these supplies wrap around your pipes, providing additional protection from the cold. You can also wrap them in 1/4 inch of newspaper and tape it down.
Hello Friends and Avid Readers,
Perhaps many of you good people have your own opinions about abortion, but 20- 40 years ago things were so drastically different, with human dignity, respect, and common sense. It seems nowadays people like to challenge each other by seeing who can get down into the dirtiest, gross, sinful, undignified condition! They simply LOVE evil in it's the most despicable form by butchering helpless infants! Strictly speaking, we are all sinners from birth and deserve hell --- yet Almighty God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus, to suffer and die for ALL of our sins, so that we don't have to go to hell if we repent and follow Jesus Christ and accept Him as our Lord and Savior to the best of our human ability. We should be grateful, thankful, honored, and humble enough to receive such a Free Gift of Mercy from the Lord!
But the KJV Bible says at Matthew 7: 13-14,
- Matthew 7:13-14 King James Version (KJV). 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
- Matthew 7:13-14 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
- Satan the Devil is crafty and powerful enough to pull 1/3 of the heavenly angels away from God to follow his low life, evil machinations, just like abortion. Now, right before Jesus' return to clean up Earth, also Heaven, all sorts of truly wicked evil will occur. We don't have to be "perfect" to get to heaven, but this new twist of late birth abortion is way over the top, and stinks way up to heaven! And in America! This is reason enough for the Lord's heated anger, dear friends... Go figure.
- If you people believe this post has value, please share it with others.
- Have a great weekend.
