For example, cover the faucet with a wooden square bucket, fill it with sawdust, expose the faucet, and add a wooden lid to freeze it. Cover exposed water pipes on the ground with insulation. It will prevent the pipes from freezing. It is best to add a master valve at the start of the water line. You can turn off the main valve once the faucet is frozen or close the main valve when you are away for a long period of time to prevent water from leaking when the faucet is frozen. If the faucet is frozen and you can’t drain it, you can pour hot boiling water over the faucet to melt the ice inside the faucet.

Don’t use these faucets blindly when we have a frozen faucet. Use other faucets that are not frozen first. Frozen faucets should be thawed first. Do not use them immediately after thawing. It should go away after a while. Use so as to protect our faucets to the fullest extent.
