Can I still use an outdoor faucet during freezing winter temperatures?

• <div><p>While it’s possible to use an outdoor faucet in the winter, it might not be the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/water-lawn-hot-weather.htm">best time to water your grass</a>. Drawing water to your outdoor faucet increases the risk of that water freezing when you’re done with the faucet, especially if you don’t take the time to re-winterize your faucet. There are heated hose products you can buy to use in winter, but these can cost hundreds of dollars. It may be best to simply wait for the weather to warm up again.</p></div>

Do freeze-proof faucets work?

• <div><p>The design of freeze-proof faucets ensures that the water in your outdoor spigot properly drains from the pipe to avoid freezing. These designs keep the outdoor spigot pipe from bursting and protect you from related <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-will-plumbing-repair-cost.htm">plumbing repair costs</a>, such as ice building up in connecting pipes and water damage in the area around the pipe.</p></div>

Q: Can I still use an outdoor faucet during freezing winter temperatures?

• <div><p>While it&rsquo;s possible to use an outdoor faucet in the winter, it might not be the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/water-lawn-hot-weather.htm">best time to water your grass</a>. Drawing water to your outdoor faucet increases the risk of that water freezing when you&rsquo;re done with the faucet, especially if you don&rsquo;t take the time to re-winterize your faucet. There are heated hose products you can buy to use in winter, but these can cost hundreds of dollars. It may be best to simply wait for the weather to warm up again.</p></div>

Q: Are there different size sink drains?

• <div><p>Yes, there are different size sink drains, but a 1 &frac12;-inch-diameter drain is the most common modern drain size. However, some sink drains are 2 inches or 3 inches in diameter. A bathroom sink drain is 1 &frac14; inches in diameter, and kitchen sink drainpipes are 1 &frac12; inches in diameter. </p></div>

Q: Can frozen pipes be a reason for toilet problems?

• <div><p>If your pipes are frozen, water won&rsquo;t be able to flow&mdash;meaning your toilet won&rsquo;t be able to flush properly. In basic terms, toilet bowls flush when water rushes in from the toilet tank. If the pipes are frozen, your tank won&rsquo;t be able to refill after a flush. You can keep adding more water to the tank if you have access to running water with frozen pipes, but it&rsquo;s certainly not a long-term solution. Your best bet is to figure out <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-do-if-your-pipes-freeze.htm">how to unfreeze your pipes</a> and get your toilet back to tip top condition.</p></div>

Q: Should I tip my plumber?

• <div><p>Tipping is not required when hiring plumbing professionals. The rate provided in your plumbing quote is intended to cover all of the labor required to get the job done. However, you may consider tipping any extra hands hired to help with cleanup, haul away old fixtures, or repair drywall that was affected by the project.</p></div>
