The Last Cold Snap Taught Us A Lot - Can You Handle Another?
Here we go again! We just dealt with Polar Vortex conditions in the Mid-Atlantic, and now another cold snap is putting properties to the test. How much more can your building handle?
It’s not just about frozen pipes—bitter cold weakens structures, overworks systems, and can lead to expensive headaches down the road.
Here's what often gets overlooked:
Cracks in Concrete & Masonry – Freeze-thaw cycles split sidewalks, walls, and foundations.
Sprinkler System Failures – Frozen lines today become major leaks tomorrow.
Cold Air Infiltration – Polar vortex winds suck warm air out, making heating systems struggle.
