COLUMBUS, OH – December 18, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
AIM Green Restoration, a Columbus-based damage restoration company, has released comprehensive guidance to help Ohio homeowners protect their plumbing systems during the harsh winter months. The family-owned restoration specialist emphasizes the importance of preventive measures as temperatures continue to drop across Central Ohio.
The company’s recent educational initiative addresses the significant risk that freezing temperatures pose to residential plumbing systems throughout Franklin and Delaware Counties. With winter temperatures in Columbus frequently dropping below freezing, unprotected pipes can burst and cause extensive water damage to homes.
“Every winter, we respond to numerous emergency calls from homeowners dealing with burst pipes and the resulting water damage,” said Isaiah Morgan, owner of AIM Green Restoration. “Taking simple preventive steps now can save thousands of dollars in restoration costs and protect families from the disruption of water damage during the coldest months of the year.”
The guidance provided by the restoration company outlines six critical steps homeowners should take to prevent freezing pipes in Ohio. These measures include properly insulating exposed pipes, disconnecting outdoor hoses before the first freeze, sealing gaps and cracks around pipe entry points, maintaining consistent indoor temperatures, allowing faucets to drip during extreme cold snaps, and opening cabinet doors to permit warm air circulation around plumbing.
Pipe insulation remains one of the most effective preventive measures, with various options available to suit different situations and budgets. Foam pipe sleeves, fiberglass wrap, and heating tape each offer distinct advantages depending on the specific application and level of protection required. The company notes that pipes located in unheated areas such as basements, crawl spaces, attics, and garages face the highest risk of freezing.
Beyond prevention strategies, AIM Green Restoration emphasizes the importance of knowing how to respond if pipes do freeze. Warning signs include reduced water flow, unusual sounds from plumbing, visible frost on exposed pipes, and unexpected odors from drains. When these symptoms appear, immediate action can minimize potential damage.
“Understanding both prevention and response is crucial for Ohio homeowners,” Morgan explained. “While our team stands ready to help with emergency water damage restoration, we believe educating the community about prevention serves everyone’s best interests.”
The timing of this guidance coincides with weather patterns that typically bring the coldest temperatures to Central Ohio between December and February. Historical data shows that pipes generally begin to freeze when temperatures drop to 20 degrees Fahrenheit or below, though wind chill and pipe location can affect this threshold.
AIM Green Restoration specializes in comprehensive restoration services, including water damage restoration, fire and smoke damage restoration, mold remediation, and biohazard cleanup. The company maintains 24/7 emergency response capabilities with a 60-minute response time commitment throughout Franklin and Delaware Counties.
