Always Insulate pipes whenever possible
Drain all water from pipes
To Prevent Frozen Water Pipes
• Install valves at lowest points on water lines.
DRAIN PIPES METHOD
• Open valves allowing all water to drain from system.

• Heat Whole House
• Leave Faucets Dripping
• Risk ICE DAM forming in drain pipes
DRIP-N-HEAT METHODS
• Forget 1 time could be disaster
• Unexpected freeze temp, forgot setup
• Open cabinet doors

• Risky heat tape blown-fuse / power fail
HEAT TAPE METHOD
• High Energy Consumption • Annual inspection / fire history

INTERMITTENTLY “ONLY AS NEEDED” BASED ON TEMP
WATER IN PIPES IS REPLACED INTERMITTENTLY BASED ON WATER TEMP REMOVING ANY COLD / NEAR FREEZING THREAT
HIGH EFFICIENCY HIGH EFFICIENCY LOW-POWERLOW-POWER PUMP PUMP
CIRCULATES WARM WATER THROUGHOUT HOT + COLD WATER PIPES
WATER MOLECULES INTERACT UNTIL COMMON TEMPHEAT DISPLACEMENT IN WATER
Removing barrier between Red and Blue zones quickly results in all water at common temperature.
ATOMS CONTINUE MOVING UNTIL COMMON TEMPHEAT DISPLACEMENT IN PIPES
HEATED WATER INTRODUCED INTO COLD PIPE(water near freezing temp shown in blue)
THERMAL ENERGY DISPLACED THROUGHOUT PIPEHEATED WATER IN PIPES
HEAT SPREADS UNTIL COMMON TEMP
THERMAL ENERGY APPLIED INSIDE PIPES RESULTS IN LESS ENERGY LOST TO ENVIRONMENT
120F deg. Water introduced at position “zero” WILL IT PROTECT ALL MY PIPES?
Thermal energy spreads regardless of pipe system complexity
Convection continues throughout until all atoms are of equal temperature (goal: ambient)
