5 P’s of Cold Weather Prep

- Protect People – Dress in warm layers & wear a hat & gloves
- Protect Pipes – Cover pipes & allow outdoor faucets to slowly drip to prevent them from freezing & breaking.
- Protect Plants – Cover cold-sensitive plants to protect them from dangerous temperatures.
- Practice Fire Safety – Use safe heating sources indoors. Don’t use fuel-burning devices such as grills; they release deadly carbon monoxide.
