safe, warm and comfortable. <br /> <br /> We have prepared some simple steps to help you save water, save money and protect your home. <br /> <br /> From insulating your pipes to avoid expensive leaks, to saving money by reducing your water use, to binning waste to avoid costly floods – there are lots of things we can do to get through winter together.</p> </div>  <div class="ctaWrap">

your pipes</h3> Pipes new or old don’t like the cold, they can freeze, crack or burst which causes unwanted damage to homes. Insulating pipes can save a lot of hassle and money.<br /> <br /> <strong>For more advice on how to protect your pipes <a href="/Your-Home/Campaigns/Protect-your-Pipes">click here</a>.</strong><br /> <br /> <h3>Find your stop valve</h3> If your pipes freeze or burst, you must locate the stop valve and turn it off immediately. It is commonly located under a sink (kitchen or utility room), in a garage or close to the hot water system.<br /> <br /> <strong>For more advice on how to find your stop valve <a href="/Your-Home/Campaigns/Protect-your-Pipes/Advice-on-frozen-or-burst-pipes">click here</a>.</strong> <br /> <br /> <h3>Warm yourself not the room</h3> <p>Keep warm with hot water bottles and lots of hot drinks through the day. But only boil the water you need – a mug of water will boil quicker and more cheaply than a full kettle.  <br /> <br /> <strong>For more advice on how to save water <a href="https://www.scottishwater.co.uk/Your-Home/Save-Water/Water-Saving-Advice ">click here</a>.</strong> </p> <h3>Winter walk safety</h3> <p>Please take extra care around waterways at this time of year. Reservoirs and lochs may look frozen but it’s impossible to tell how thick the ice is, so please keep a safe distance.<br /> <br /> <strong>For more advice on safety around our reservoirs <a href="https://www.scottishwater.co.uk/In-Your-Area/Visiting-our-Reservoirs/Enabling-Responsible-Access/Water-Safety">click here</a>.</strong></p> <h3>Save on energy bills</h3> <p>Shorter showers can reduce your energy bills and save water, which is a win for you and our planet. Try taking just 2 minutes off your shower and save up to £130 off your annual energy bill.*<br /> <br /> <strong>For more advice on saving on your energy bills <a href="https://www.scottishwater.co.uk/Your-Home/Save-Water ">click here</a>.</strong></p> <h3>Avoid blocks and floods</h3> Stovies, soups and stews are great winter warmers for this time of year. But don’t pour fats, oils or grease down the sink – when they cool, they congeal and cause blockages, which could lead to flooding.<br /> <br /> <strong>For more advice on avoiding blockages <a href="https://www.scottishwater.co.uk/Your-Home/Campaigns/Nature-Calls/Kitchen-Checklist">click here</a>.</strong><br />   <h3>Save water and money</h3> <p> Using a dishwasher or washing machine on its eco setting can save you money on energy and save water – which is good for the planet. Washing full loads make sense too, getting your money’s worth out of each cycle.  <br /> <br /> <strong>For more advice on saving water and money <a href="https://www.scottishwater.co.uk/Your-Home/Save-Water/Water-Saving-Advice ">click here</a>.</strong></p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><em><span style="font-size: 16px;">*<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #242424;">Home Energy Scotland: Annual saving, family of 4.</span></span></em></p> </div>  </div> </div>  </div> </div> <div class="footerWrap js_footerWrap"> <div class="footer" role="contentinfo"> <div class="footerMenuWrap"> <nav> <ul> <li> <a href="/Your-Home" target=""> Your Home </a> </li> <li> <a href="/In-Your-Area" target=""> In Your Area </a> </li> <li> <a href="/Business-and-Developers" target=""> Business & Developers </a> </li> <li> <a href="/About-Us" target=""> About Us </a> </li> <li> <a href="/Help-and-Resources" target=""> Help & Resources </a> </li> <li> <a href="/About-Us/Careers" target=""> Careers </a> </li> </ul> </nav> </div>  <div class="footerContactDetails"> <a href="tel:08000778778" class="footerTel">0800 0778 778</a>24 hours 7 days a week<a href="https://swcustomerportal.microsoftcrmportals.com/ReportAProblem/" class="footerEmail">Report a problem</a> <div class="footerSocial"> <ul class="socialIcons followButtons"> <li class="followUsText"> Follow us </li> <li> <a href="http://www.twitter.com/scottish_water" target="_blank"> <img src="/-/media/ScottishWater/Images/Project-files/Images/Social/x.svg?bc=Black&as=0&iar=0&hash=2CE5B0CB58FC8DD5C301F77AD9AD2DBB" alt="X formerly Twitter" DisableWebEdit="False" /> </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/scottishwater" target="_blank"> <img src="/-/media/ScottishWater/Images/Project-files/Images/Social/facebook.svg?bc=Black&as=0&iar=0&hash=D96D0280F8553A1F70FDF9E62F0CFD26" alt="Facebook" DisableWebEdit="False" /> </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/scottishwater/?hl=en" target="_blank"> <img src="/-/media/ScottishWater/Images/Project-files/Images/Social/instagram.svg?bc=Black&as=0&iar=0&hash=2A544974E64395235DABD6F4B84DA0ED" alt="Instagram" DisableWebEdit="False" /> </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/scottish-water" target="_blank"> <img src="/-/media/ScottishWater/Images/Project-files/Images/Social/linkedin.svg?bc=Black&as=0&iar=0&hash=2ADDC81E93E24D5EB4E0111D4D418694" alt="LinkedIn" DisableWebEdit="False" /> </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEvWNHb7LBKSN7HkRjc-UgA" target="_blank"> <img src="/-/media/ScottishWater/Images/Project-files/Images/Social/youtube.svg?bc=Black&as=0&iar=0&hash=C1FC74DA58AA0B38556CE9E2CDF3ACB6" alt="YouTube" DisableWebEdit="False" /> </a> </li> </ul> </div>  </div>  <div class="footerBottomWrap"> <div class="footerQuickLinksWrap"> <nav> <ul> <li> <a href="/About-Us/What-We-Do/Legal/Accessibility" target="_blank"> Accessibility </a> </li> <li> <a href="/Help-and-Resources/Contact-Us/Website-Feedback" target=""> Website Feedback </a> </li> <li> <a href="/Make-A-Payment" target=""> Pay Invoice </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://swcustomerportal.microsoftcrmportals.com/SignIn " target=""> LP Portal </a> </li> <li> <a href="/Help-and-Resources/Contact-Us" target=""> Contact Us </a> </li> <li> <a href="/About-Us/What-We-Do/Legal" target=""> Legal </a> </li> <li> <a href="/About-Us/What-We-Do/Data-Privacy" target=""> Data Privacy </a> </li> <li> <a href="/Help-and-Resources/Document-Hub/Key-Publications/Governance" target=""> Modern Slavery </a> </li> </ul> </nav> </div>  <div class="credits"> <span class="copyright"> © Copyright 2024 Scottish Water.
