PRINCE GEORGE – An arctic airmass over northern B.C. will bring temperatures between minus 30 and 40 degrees Celsius. Preparing your home for the next deep may save you headaches and repair costs.
Copper water pipes that are near an outside wall have a chance of freezing if they are not insulated properly. Preparing now will ensure your home is in great shape for the minus-40 temperatures expected over the next few days.
“ And you’ll want to look for things like heat tape that you put on a pipe. It’s only suitable for pipes with water fastened with electrical tape.”
Garrett Turner
