    Protect Your Water Meters and Installations Against the Danger of Frost!
    Urgup Municipality warns citizens against the risk of frost on water meters and installations. According to the latest weather forecast reports of the General Directorate of Meteorology, temperatures in Ürgüp are expected to be below seasonal norms. This poses a frost risk for outdoor water installations and meters.
    For this reason, it is very important to take precautions to prevent freezing of your outdoor water meters and installations. Meters should be protected against freezing by covering them with thermal insulation materials such as glass wool or sawdust.
    Remember! Never pour hot water or use fire to thaw frozen water meters and pipes. Such actions can cause meters and pipes to burst, causing major material damage and significant water losses.
    By taking simple precautions, you can both extend the life of your plumbing and prevent potential damage.
