Frost protection for the water pipes

  1. Drain & insulate outside pipes: Turn off the main tap, drain the water and insulate outside pipes with polystyrene or foam.
  2. Turn off the water: In unheated areas such as the cellar, turn off the water and drain pipes that are not needed.
  3. Close windows: External doors and windows in the cellar should always remain closed in winter.
  4. Check building connections: For new buildings or construction sites, ensure good insulation and regular checks.

With these simple measures, you can avoid frost damage and ensure a carefree winter.
