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. N O T P R A C T I C A L

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 T o o R i s k y

Keep Spare Fuses Open Cabinet Doors Heat Tape wrap pipes Risky heat tape blown-fuse / power fail HEAT TAPE METHOD High Energy Consumption Annual inspection / fire history Heat whole house C O S T L Y E N E R G Y B I L L S

Always Insulate pipes whenever possible Intermittent warm water circulation. To Prevent Frozen Water Pipes INSIDE-OUT METHOD PROVEN SOLUTION RESIDENTIAL / sm- med COMMERCIAL

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 LOW-POWER PUMP CIRCULATES WARM WATER THROUGHOUT HOT + COLD WATER PIPES

WATER MOLECULES INTERACT UNTIL COMMON TEMP HEAT DISPLACEMENT IN WATER Removing barrier between Red and Blue zones quickly results in all water at common temperature.

ATOMS CONTINUE MOVING UNTIL COMMON TEMP HEAT DISPLACEMENT IN PIPES HEATED WATER INTRODUCED INTO COLD PIPE (water near freezing temp shown in blue)

THERMAL ENERGY DISPLACED THROUGHOUT PIPE HEATED 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)
