You can prevent damage that frost causes to your home

  1. All pipe work
  2. The water tank

• If you’re going to be away from home at any time during the winter;
  1. Leave the heating on at a low temperature or alternatively make use of a thermostat to ensure that the temperature is maintained above 4ºc
  2. If you use oil heating check to make sure you have enough before you go away.
  3. Open the attic door to let heat circulate.

Be kind and caring in these freezing conditions

• Remember to check on your elderly neighbours; particularly those who live alone.
• Don’t assume someone else is doing it!
