heating pipes in garage - could they freeze?

01/23/2008 02:07 PM suggi1

I live in a multilevel house with the garage under and the heating pipes go through the garage at the ceiling from the lower level and on to the bedroom over the garage. The electricity went out for a bit the other night and got me thinking -- what if it was out for an hour or longer -- would those pipes in the cold garage freeze and break??

Havce lived here a few years without a problem but the northeast is particularily snowy/stormy/cold this winter and the electricity has gone out a few times. Any suggestions - PLEASE.

Thank you. On top of everything the garage door has a push button opener and if the lights go out you can not open the garage door and there is no access from the house or anywhere. HELP
