Lowest temps in Northern Wisconsin for 2020 so far

2/13/2020 (Permalink)

With the lowest temperatures we have seen in Northern Wisconsin so far this year, your home may be at risk.  Today at SERVPRO of Hayward the temps were at -18 degrees.  With these below 0 temperatures it is very risky to leave a home unattended and expect everything to be OK.  We have seen newly built homes to older homes with water pipes exploding and causing massive water damage.  It doesn’t matter on the year your home was built but how well you are taking care of it.  If you are leaving your place of residence for an extended period time we suggest you turn off your water while away, if staying in your home or cabin, leave a stream of water running and keep your basement areas well heated to prevent frozen pipes.  If you fall to a disaster of busted pipes give us a call at 715-634-0699 with 24/7 emergency restoration needs at SERVPRO of Hayward.
