To International Students Living in Private Apartments,

When the temperature falls below freezing, there is a risk that your water heater and water pipes may freeze.
To prevent this, please make sure to drain the water from the pipes.
Also, even if you will be away for a long period, do not turn off the breaker.
Please refer to the information below and confirm the proper procedure with your landlord or management company.
