Winterization, and winterization maintenance throughout the winter, is a crucial part of maintaining plumbing and HVAC systems. Hoses and pipes that will not be used during the winter and are exposed to freezing temperatures should be properly drained and stored. Critical systems that will be used during the wintertime must be maintained through use of a glycol antifreeze solution appropriate to the application.
