Old Man Winter has largely hidden his nasty scowl this year, but February is known for its frigid temperatures. It’s better to be prepared for the artic chill than to scurry around to repair a problem during an emergency.“We have pipe insulation so your pipes don’t freeze,” said Morrison Hardware and Industrial Supply owner Bernadette Doud. “We have weather stripping, shut-off valves, and we carry the Pex line which many contractors are going to now instead of PVC pipe because it can expand up to six times its size.”Bernadette and her husband, Dwayne, have been making steady improvements to Morrison Hardware since buying the store and taking over operations June 1, 2016.
