When temperatures drop below freezing in Vernal, your home’s plumbing system can quickly become vulnerable. A frozen pipe isn’t just an inconvenience — it’s an emergency waiting to happen. If the ice inside expands, it can crack your pipes, flood your home, and cause thousands of dollars in damage.
That’s where CPR (Clausse Plumbing Repair & Water Treatment) comes in. Our licensed plumbers specialize in frozen pipe repair and prevention services across Vernal, Naples, Maeser, Jensen, and surrounding Uintah County communities. We respond quickly to thaw frozen pipes, repair damage, and protect your plumbing from future freeze-ups — restoring safety and water flow to your home.
Vernal’s cold winters and high-altitude climate make homes especially susceptible to frozen plumbing. Pipes most at risk include those that run through:
Uninsulated crawl spaces, basements, and attics
Exterior walls with poor insulation
Garages or utility rooms without heat
Outdoor spigots, hose bibs, and sprinkler lines
Even a small gap in insulation or a draft can freeze a pipe overnight when temperatures drop below 32°F. CPR’s team understands these local conditions — and we’re equipped to prevent and repair damage before it worsens.
If you notice any of these warning signs, call CPR immediately:
No water or reduced water flow from faucets
Frost or condensation visible on exposed pipes
Unusual clanking or bubbling sounds when running water
Water damage or damp spots on walls or ceilings
A burst pipe or pooling water around plumbing fixtures
Ignoring a frozen pipe can lead to major leaks once it thaws. Our plumbers act fast to locate the blockage, thaw it safely, and repair any breaks before flooding occurs.

Our prevention tips include:
Insulate exposed pipes in attics, garages, and crawl spaces
Disconnect garden hoses before freezing temperatures arrive
Let faucets drip slightly on very cold nights
Keep cabinet doors open to allow warm air to circulate around pipes
Schedule a CPR winter plumbing inspection each fall
Small preventative steps can save you major repair costs later.
