Why Monitoring Pipes Is Essential to Prevent Freezing — And How SafeSense Can Help

When temperatures drop, frozen pipes are one of the most common — and costly — problems homeowners and property managers face. A frozen pipe can burst with devastating consequences, leading to water damage, expensive repairs, and significant downtime in both residential and commercial settings. That’s why proactively monitoring pipe temperatures is critical for cold-weather preparedness.

The Risk of Frozen Pipes

Water expands as it freezes, and when that expansion happens inside a pipe, it creates pressure that can cause even metal or PVC pipes to burst. Pipes most at risk include:

• Outdoor hose bibs

• Pipes in unheated interior spaces like basements, attics, and garages

• Pipes running along exterior walls with inadequate insulation

Just a few hours of freezing temperatures can cause significant damage if you’re not monitoring these vulnerable areas.

How to Prevent Pipes from Freezing

While traditional insulation methods help, modern technology offers smarter solutions. One of the most effective tools is real-time temperature monitoring with a sensor like the SafeSense TempTouch.
