Noblesville IN – Indiana Restoration and Cleaning Services held a monthly promotion for customers who purchased duct cleaning or carpet cleaning services in October that donated $25 per cleaning to the Central Indiana Affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Foundation to help find a cure for breast cancer. The promotion, during National Breast Cancer Awareness month, was inspired by the recent diagnosis of Julie Morales, wife of long time Indiana Restoration and Cleaning Services employee and project manager, Miguel Morales.

“We’re glad that our promotion is going to donate money to help find a cure. I think when we realized that Breast Cancer Awareness Month was coming up, we wanted to do something to support Julie, Miguel and his family,” said Dan Hanlin, President of Indiana Restoration and Cleaning Services. “We took this personally. To show our support, not only did we run this promotion and donate the money to the Central Indiana Affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Foundation, many of our staff shaved their heads as a sign of support for Julie as she was going through her chemotherapy. We are extremely thankful to the customers who scheduled their services during this month and participated in the promotion.”

The promotion raised a total of $575 that was given to the foundation in early November.

Frozen Water Pipe Facts
A review of homeowner’s insurance claims resulting from plumbing supply system failures from multiple insurance companies around the country revealed:

• Plumbing supply system failures are the leading source of residential water losses, with 48% greater losses (in terms of total payouts) than the second leading source.
• Plumbing supply system failures cost an average of $5,092 per incident after the deductible was paid.
• Of the claims analyzed, 65% were caused by a failure of the plumbing supply system material, while 18% were caused by frozen pipes.
• Frozen pipe-related failures resulted in losses that were roughly twice as severe as those caused by plumbing supply system material failures.
• The risk of a frozen pipe failure is dependent upon the geographic location of the home, the location of the pipe within the structure, and the time of year.
• Homes located in North Region states with plumbing in the basement and/or exterior walls have the greatest risk of a frozen pipe failure.
• Plumbing supply lines to the exterior hose bib are the areas most vulnerable to bursting during freezing weather. In this sample, January was the month when pipes were most prone to freezing.
• In this sample, homes that were 16 to 40 years of age represented a larger proportion of supply system material failure claims than their proportion of total policies.
• The proportion of total water loss claims attributed to supply system material failure was twice as high in the South Region than in the North Region.
• Of the claims analyzed, 22% of all supply system material failures occurred beneath the slab of homes without basements.
