Now is the Time to Protect Ministry Buildings from Freezing Temps

As our preferred insurance provider, Brotherhood Mutual Insurance Company knows firsthand how below-freezing temps can wreak costly, disruptive havoc. Freezing weather is a major cause of property claims for our ministries, especially for churches unoccupied throughout the week.

For example, the loss control specialists at Brotherhood Mutual® have seen firsthand what happens when water freezes in sprinkler heads. The system can break under the pressure, resulting in hundreds of gallons of water raining down from the ceiling, waterlogging sanctuaries and education wings.

I encourage you to develop a routine to help prevent damage caused by freezing weather. This collection of resources from Brotherhood Mutual gives you a starting place. You’ll learn how to respond to predicted temperature plunges in your area, as well as proactive steps when the weather is warm, like installing automatic water shut-off valves (Discount Included) and purchasing generators. It’s valuable information I know you can use.
