\ud83d\udea8 Metro Atlanta Freeze Warning \u2014 Subfreezing overnight temperatures can freeze pipes fast. Take precautions now to protect your home.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Freeze warning in North Metro Atlanta!
An extended period of\u00a0sub-freezing temperatures<\/strong>\u00a0is here \u2014 with lows dropping into the teens across\u00a0Alpharetta, Roswell, Canton, Woodstock, Suwanee, Buford, and Johns Creek<\/strong>\u00a0over the next 10 days.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Starting Thursday night through next week<\/strong>, our area faces heavy ice, freezing rain, and snow probabilities<\/strong>, followed by some of the coldest overnight lows we\u2019ve seen this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if it warms slightly during the day, pipes can freeze and burst overnight<\/strong> when temps dip below 32\u00b0F \u2014 leading to costly water damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why\u00a0PuroClean North Metro Atlanta<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>is issuing this alert and sharing a few essential prevention steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udd27 How to Prepare Before Temperatures Drop<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These simple steps can save you thousands in repairs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Let faucets drip overnight<\/strong> to keep water moving.
\u2705 Open cabinet doors<\/strong> under sinks to circulate warm air.
\u2705 Keep your thermostat at 65\u00b0F or higher<\/strong>, even if you\u2019re away.
\u2705 Disconnect hoses<\/strong> and cover all outdoor spigots.
\u2705 Insulate exposed pipes<\/strong> in attics, basements, and crawlspaces.
\u2705 Know where your main shut-off valve is<\/strong> before an emergency hits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\ud83e\uddf0 Pro Tip:<\/em> Wrap pipes with towels, foam sleeves, or even pool noodles for quick insulation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udca5 What to Do If a Pipe Bursts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Turn off your main water supply immediately.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    \ud83d\udd52 Why Overnight Freezes Are Dangerous<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Pipes rarely burst while<\/em> they\u2019re frozen \u2014 the real damage occurs as they thaw<\/strong>.
    When ice inside expands, pressure builds, and as it melts, cracks release hundreds of gallons of water into your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That\u2019s why we stay staffed around the clock<\/strong> during every cold front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
