Why Pipes Burst in Queens
Queens’s aging housing stock and brutal winters create perfect conditions for pipe failures:
- Frozen pipes — January and February freezes are the #1 cause of AC breakdowns in Queens
- Aging galvanized steel pipes — many pre-1960 Queens homes still have original steel pipes that corrode and rupture
- High water pressure — NYC water pressure can exceed 80 PSI, well above the safe threshold of 60 PSI
- Tree root intrusion — common in older neighborhoods like Riverdale and Pelham Bay
- Poor insulation — pipes in exterior walls, basements, and crawl spaces are most vulnerable
