Georgia winters are mild, but hard freezes still hit Gwinnett a few times each year — and that’s when water lines freeze and garage appliances struggle. A little prep protects your ice maker lines, garage fridge or freezer, and washer hoses from a cold-snap failure.
Before a hard freeze
- Know where your water shutoff is in case a line bursts
- Insulate exposed water lines to the fridge ice maker and washer
- Keep the garage door closed to hold heat around a garage fridge/freezer
- Run a trickle of water if pipes to the laundry are on an exterior wall
Garage appliances in the cold
Many fridges and freezers stop running correctly below about 40°F — the thermostat thinks it’s cold enough and the compressor won’t cycle, so a garage freezer can actually thaw. If yours sits in an unheated garage, a garage-ready model or a small heater nearby helps.
If something froze or failed
If a water line froze and cracked, or a garage appliance quit after a cold snap, we can repair the line, valve or controls. Call us with the price up front.
