Frozen Pipes: A frozen pipe can burst at the point where the ice blockage inside the pipe is located, but typically the rupture is caused by the backflow pressure between the water source and blockage. A burst pipe can cause considerable damage to your property if not addressed quickly.

In case of a fire you should be aware of some tips that will help you.

 

DO:
