Gents those of you who have static set ups with large pre filters and 4040 filters how do you stop them from freezing up mines in my garage.

I know that I can lag my pipe work but how do you protector all you filters.

It might not help you but you must have a seriously flimsy garage door I’ve just had a new insulated automated door fitted,it closes down onto a rubber seal you shouldn’t be getting anything freezing up inside your garage tbh.

Hello dazzler.  Go to Wilkinson's  get a cheap bbq cover.   And the thickest tog duvet.  Put them over it sorted.

That won’t be enough on the coldest nights. Not worth risking your membrane etc.  Get yourself a heater with a stat. Harder to keep the heat in if your garage is a prefab. My garage is integral, has a cavity wall & slightly insulated door so hasn’t been a problem for my static. My old house had a prefab, uninsulated, and my ibc froze in that cold winter back in 2010.

Good point Simon, integral garage should be absolutely fine, more chance of freezing occurring if it’s a detached garage.

It gets cold in our garage but doesn’t get anywhere near to the point where anything would freeze up.
