Water Meter Antifreeze Tips

The severe winter has come. In order to ensure that your water life will not be affected by the severe winter, please pay more attention to the water supply facilities in your home during your busy schedule, and take thermal insulation measures for the water supply facilities in advance to avoid freezing damage in winter, which will affect your water use.

Little knowledge of water antifreeze:

1. Wearing clothes to prevent cold, the water meter and the exposed pipes, water supply equipment and other water facilities behind the water meter shall be wrapped with cotton and hemp textile for thermal insulation, and the water meter well shall be filled with necessary thermal insulation materials for thermal insulation.

2. Close the windows to prevent cold. When the weather is cold, please close the windows of the balcony, kitchen, sanitary and other water rooms to ensure that the indoor temperature is above zero.

3. Drip water to prevent cold. Users can turn on the faucet when the temperature is below - 5 ℃ to make the water drip into a line to prevent the pipeline from freezing. At the same time, users are invited to collect the outflow water to save water resources and avoid water waste.

4. Emergency measures: For frozen pipes, please cover them with hot towels and pour warm water to melt ice. Do not use open fire, because the current pipes are made of food-grade plastic materials. Even if the outer pipes are galvanized, there are plastic interlayer inside, and open fire will damage the pipes.
