With record-low temperatures and heavy snow expected in our area, the City of Camden shares important tips to help residents stay safe:
Outdoor / Property Tips:
- Turn off irrigation systems to prevent water from freezing on roads.Title
- Disconnect hoses and drain outdoor faucets to avoid burst pipes.
Indoor / Home Tips:
- Keep a trickle of water running in faucets to prevent indoor pipes from freezing.
- Open cabinet doors under sinks to allow warm air to circulate around plumbing.
- Maintain indoor heat – even a small increase can help prevent frozen pipes.
General Safety:
- Limit travel and drive carefully on potentially icy roads.
- Prepare for possible power outages with flashlights, batteries, and warm clothing.
- Check on neighbors, especially seniors or those with limited mobility.
- Stay updated via City of Camden alerts for facility closures and emergency information.
