Rockwall County is under a Winter Storm Warning until 6 a.m. Wednesday, February 1

TO PREVENT HAZARDS & DAMAGE:

  • Turn interior faucets on to a slow drip.
  • Turn off your irrigation system.
  • Backflow prevention devices are usually in insulated enclosures, but it is a good idea to add another layer of insulation under these enclosures to help prevent them from freezing during an extended period of low temperatures.
  • Know where your water shut off valve is located and how to shut off your water should it become necessary due to a burst frozen pipe.
  • Wrap/insulate exterior water faucets.
