1. Pay attention to "dressing and wearing hats"

Water supply pipes, faucets and other water supply facilities exposed to the outside must be wrapped with insulation materials such as cotton and linen fabrics and plastic foam. The outdoor water meter well should be filled with sawdust, cotton wool or other insulation materials, covered with plastic cloth, and the water meter box cover should be covered, which can effectively prevent the water meter and gate valve from freezing. If the water meter is installed in the corridor, pay attention to closing the corridor door at hand.

2. Pay attention to "dripping water into a line"

In severe cold weather, you can slightly turn on the faucet at night to drip water into a line to ensure the flow of tap water in the pipe, which can effectively prevent the pipe from freezing. The dripping water can be collected in a suitable container to save water.

3. Pay attention to "closing doors and windows"

At night, the windows of rooms with water supply facilities such as balconies, kitchens, and bathrooms should be closed to ensure that the indoor temperature is above zero degrees Celsius.

4. Pay attention to "draining facilities"

All landscaping units and properties should drain and purge the water in the pipes in advance. If residential users are away from home for a long time, they can close the valve on the water meter before leaving home to drain the tap water in the pipes.

5. Pay attention to "warm water thawing"

For frozen faucets, water meters, and pipes, it is advisable to wrap the faucet with a hot towel first, then pour warm water (no higher than 30 degrees Celsius) to thaw the faucet, then turn on the faucet, and slowly pour warm water along the faucet to thaw the pipe. Do not use boiling water to scald or roast with fire, otherwise it will damage the water meter. You can also use hot air or electric heating equipment to keep it about 50 cm for external melting, and let the pipe "sun" to thaw it.

The importance of antifreeze measures for water meters in winter cannot be ignored, it is related to our daily water use. By taking appropriate antifreeze measures, we can protect the water meter and ensure the stability of water supply. I hope the above measures can provide some help for everyone in antifreeze of water meters in winter. Let us spend a warm and comfortable winter together!
