Met Office issues advice on how to thaw frozen pipes

Pipes freeze in cold weather because the water inside them turns to ice when temperatures drop below freezing (0C). When water freezes it expands, which creates immense pressure that can cause the pipe to weaken and burst, especially if the pipes are uninsulated or in unheated areas like attics or basements.
