It’s getting cold outside, with temperatures dipping down into the teens this week, so just this reminder from the Peoria Heights Public Works Department:
Water pipes can freeze in the winter. If that’s a worry in your home, allow just a drip – a trickle will do -- to keep the water flowing. It’s also a good idea to know where your water shut-off valve is. If you don’t, call the Peoria Heights Water Department at 309-686-2375 and someone can stop by to help.
“That will save you lots of heartache and lots of money,” said Village Trustee Dave Marfell.
