How to thaw quickly when the water pipe is frozen?

Hot compress method-

It is to wrap the exposed and frozen parts of the water pipes, including the faucet, with absorbent towels, and it is best to wrap them. Then pour hot water on the towel. Be careful not to pour too much hot water at a time. Too much water will spill everywhere, wasting water. Generally, the towel is just soaked and then waited for a while. When the temperature drops and the steam stops, water it again. Generally speaking, if it is not too cold, the water pipes will thaw after three times of watering. If it is too cold, you can try watering it several times. Don't try to twist the faucet when it is not completely thawed, which will destroy the sealing effect of the faucet. This method is simple, practical and easy to operate. The reason why we pour the pipeline directly without boiling water is that it cannot be thawed quickly and it wastes water. Wrapping with towel can make the whole pipeline heated evenly and melt the ice inside quickly.
