What Does Winterizing Mean? By winterizing, the servicer makes sure that a vacant, abandoned home's plumbing can endure a winter freeze. Typically, this means: draining the water from the pipes and the hot water heater. putting do not use notices on the sinks, toilets, and other conspicuous areas of the home, and.

Pipe-winterization antifreeze protects against pipes bursting down to 50 degrees F. Blend of propylene glycol and denatured alcohol creates a non-toxic antifreeze that's safe for copper, brass and plastic (not acetate). Use full strength; suggested amounts per use: 24 ozs.

Wet Winterization the winterization of a property with a forced hot water (or steam) heating system (both the plumbing and the heating systems have to be winterized)

Winterizing is when a house is prepared for vacancy. This process prepares the plumbing system and components to not be affected by temperature extremes (so the pipes don't freeze). The process should be performed when a house is expected to be vacant through the heating season, a.k.a winter.

The cost is usually around $300 to de-winterize the home and then re-winterize it after the inspection because the seller will likely require this. If, for some reason, the seller doesn't require you to re-winterize the home, the de-winterization alone will usually cost half that.

Winterization The winterizing process involves emptying the water heater, draining all water from all pipes, filling all fixtures with an antifreeze solution and performing a pressure test to demonstrate that all lines are closed.

Dry Winterization: Dry Heat Systems which by far are the most common, heat the property through forced hot air. As previously discussed, properties with Dry Heat systems will have a Furnace to heat air and vents and registers on walls and floors to circulate the hot air in the rooms.

Pour a cup or two of biodegradable antifreeze into every sink, shower, and tub drain. Set the control on the water heater to pilot or to vacation. Shut all the faucets off. Shut off the hose bibs.
