How can I fix a frozen pipe safely without causing damage?
You can safely thaw a frozen pipe by gently warming the pipe and relieving pressure. Avoid flames to prevent fire and pipe damage.
Quick steps:
- Shut off water to the affected line.
- Open nearby faucets to relieve pressure.
- Warm the pipe from the faucet back using a hair dryer or warm towels.
- Stop if you see cracks, bulges, or inaccessible sections. Summers provides pipe thawing and emergency plumbing in Peru, Logansport, and Wabash. We can locate issues with line detection/camera inspections and offer a free estimate after diagnosis.
