2. Turn Off Power Near the Water

If it's safe to reach the breaker.

3. Open a Faucet

To drain the pressure out of the lines.

Local Knowledge

Why Pipes Freeze in Mokena Homes

Mokena winters bring long stretches below freezing, and a few spots freeze first.

Outdoor Spigot Lines

A hose left connected traps water in the line. It freezes, splits and leaks inside the wall when you turn it on in spring.

Pipes in Garage Walls

Lines that run along an unheated garage are exposed in a cold snap.

Bonus Rooms Over Garages

Plumbing in rooms over the garage can freeze when the floor below is cold.

Newer Homes

Where Pipes Freeze in Newer Mokena Homes

Newer homes freeze in different places than older ones. Pipes in attached garage walls, bonus rooms over garages and plumbing near rim joists in the basement are common trouble spots. A hose left connected to an outdoor faucet can split the pipe inside the wall. A little insulation and a few habits prevent most of it.
