Broken Pipe Causes Damage

During a recent storm event SERVPRO of Idaho Falls responded to a call that was a result of a frozen water pipe.

The homeowner had an air conditioner in the window that was hooked up to a water spigot on the outside of the home. The water line to the air conditioner froze and broke. The water from the spigot then ran into a nearby window well. 

Temps have started dropping and winter is knocking on the door. Take the time to walk around your home and ensure that your home is ready for winter. If it’s the first winter you have been in your home take extra time ensure its ready for those subzero temperatures that are standard in Idaho winters.
